I posted over on the behind the scenes thread, but this part is better suited here.

I was hoping for at least 40,000. I really wish the League would push the owners to ensure that Grey Cup capacity of their venues have to be at least 45-50,000, but it looks like those days are gone.he new-look BMO Field should be able to accommodate 35,000 to 38,000 for the Grey Cup and Winter Classic.
@CFL_News: Capacity will be just under 27,000 for the Argonauts, whose regular-season home opener is June 23. - @NeilMDavidson #CFL #Argos

Shouldn't the pricing have already been released to Argonauts Season Ticket holders? I was speaking to some fans of other teams and they were shocked that the pricing hasn't been released yet. Does anyone remember when the pricing usually comes out?
I actually emailed the league 10 days or so ago with this exact question , the CFL passed me off to the Argos and the reply I got back was by the 1st of June information should be out , I am a ssh with Hamilton so I expect Argo ssh's will have something before then .
P.S The Argo season preview press conference is taking place to-day at 1pm so maybe some news on tickets etc .
Should the Tragically Hip be at Grey Cup 2016 in what could be their last concert, in front of 40,000 live fans, and millions at home? It would a nice send off, and would certainly generate some interest. On the other hand, a case is to be made for a newer, younger act-- like the Weekend or Drake, in the Argos/CFL attempts to generate a wider fanbase.
It's June 1st ---- shouldn't we be seeing some Grey Cup ticketing info by now? In past years this is about the time ticket sales to local (host) STH begins and then across the country to other CFL STH within about two weeks (ie. General public sale was June 13 2015 last year).
If The Hip is able they should do Grey Cup. I wouldn't class myself as a fan but I surely don't mind them in the least. It would be fitting and one whole heck of a lot better then the crap we could see at Grey Cup.
Apparently tickets will go on sale in July.
