At least it still looks cool on the outside and looks good in pictures. It's the perfect arena for the stampede and concerts.
The Big O in Montreal has to be the toughest stadium to maintain and to find a purpose for. I know the current renovations will bring the CF in as it's new permanent home. Are the Alouettes also planning to move it? The stadium seem too large for those two franchises. Unless they can constantly sell out or mostly fill the stands, it might suffer from the empty cavern effect that make going to the event kind of boring. I wish they had spend the money and just upgraded the seating for MLB. I'm sure Montreal will get a team back in the future and the Big O should be it's home.
