Ticket prices.

The general consensus is that the Argos receive $0 from concession sales and parking at Rogers Centre currently. If they get a portion of those things at BMO Field it could offset the higher cost of hosting the games at BMO Field.

That's a pretty big If. For all we know MLSE may already have some sort of an agreement in place with the City for all concessions.

The exact quote was:



I take it to mean that MLSE couldn't negotiate a sweetheart deal because they are technically not the landlord. I don't see why MLSE would give the Argos any special favors anyways, that's to say I wouldn't see them negotiating a sweetheart lease with them.

It could also mean that $100,000 is the bare bones minimum cost to stage a sporting event at BMO Field.

Your assumptions aren't "big ifs?" Everything is a "big if" right now. How much does it cost to put on a game at Rogers Centre currently?

As per the article posted above Less than $100,000.

How much less?

it costs about $100,000 every time Toronto FC plays at BMO Field.

Are you claiming a TFC game is a bare bones event? Do you know what the $100,000 is covering? Is that the whole TFC game or part of the game? What is the breakdown?

Is this a fact or an assumption on your behalf?

$32,674.27 ;-)

I don't know, hence the word "Could".

I don't know, hence the word "May".

If you would give me Silver tickets for ~$35 i would probably come to all the Argos games. Otherwise, you will see me there maybe twice per season.

And I'd like a brand new Ferrari for $1000...

Why Silver? You can get A Bronze Season Ticket for about $35 per game. ($350 for the 10 Game season IIRC) Blue are even less.

Silver are decent/good enough while bronze are meh...

With all the empty seats you can probably buy Bronze and move down. Regardless it's not like buying Silver Season Tickets are that expensive.

Do not know but the dynamics are different.

Argos pay rent to Rogers

TFC pays rent to MLSE

Wouldn't TFC pay rent to the City of Toronto since they own BMO Field?
