    This place is boomin' with football fans young n' old during the Calgary Stampeder season. I personally and a part owner of Stampeder season tickets, and love every minute of cheering on the home town favourite with some pals, win or lose. Great people and great service!

    Was fortunate to visit this stadium to watch the Calgary Stampeders play - not as exciting as watching my Hamilton Ti-Cats, but still a fun event.
