TBH Paul, I like real grass too. But I don't like players running from real grass to turf as is the case in the end zones at BMO. I would prefer 1 or the other. It is going to be a factor on a key play at some point in a football game. When the Argos played the Stamps, Kenny Shaw scored a TD on a quick in route over the goal line in which the Stamps corner fell when he went to make his break. It obviously wasn't a key point in that game of season, but it could have been. The 2 different surfaces require different footwear.
It's us vs the rest of the country
The north end is the side where the permanent seating was removed to extend the field for football. The endzone is all turf there.
The south end usually has a couple feet of concrete between the field and the wall during soccer and it's mainly used as a walkway for stadium personnel. For Argos, they cover the remaining concrete with turf and run it right up to the wall.
