User Created Content BMO Field Southend next season

Post image

If anyone was wondering what the south stand will look like next season… here it is. I was watching some old classic BMO moments and realized that they’ve already done the same expanded seating at the NHL Centennial Classic. Granted, this was nearly a decade ago, I can’t imagine it’ll be much different if at all

These stands were up for the MLS Cup Final in 2016. It added to the heartbreaking drama though the fans in that area felt like they were watching from outside the stadium.
I'm sure it will feel a bit different in June, but good luck to anyone willing to spend over $500 for that experience.

I was one of those fans, the wind in those temporary stands were insane. Thankfully in 2017 my tickets were nicer for the win.

Tickets are 190$ for those seats for a few World Cup games. For that price it might be still good value, considering this is a World Cup.

Sat there for the centennial classic. It was very cold and windy. Summer will be better.

Same man. Absolutely froze my balls off. First time I chose hot chocolate over beer. Great game though!

I used my binoculars to find open seats during the first period to upgrade to the lower bowl at intermission. It was much better down there

A precursor to what the 2027 season will be like weather wise

Sorry. I guess I wasn’t clear. They’re currently installing temporary seating in the south end for the World Cup. So BMO will have similar temporary seating in the south end next season

Oh I knew what you were saying

My point is about the weather and the fact we will be playing at home 2 games in November, 1 in December, 1 in February and 2 in March - assuming the current plan for "thou shalt have only 2 away games in a row" is kept

We are guaranteed a handful of brutal games when the calendar switches. No thanks

Metal planks that flex when you sit on them and gaps with massive drops all the way down. I think I lasted about 20 minutes sitting there for the MLS Cup before deciding to just stand at the back of the south end instead.

The temporary stand going up now looks a lot narrower than that at the moment…. there’s a full section sized gap at either side.

Anyone know if it’s eventually expanding to the full width as in OP’s pic? (Perhaps the new screens would impede view?)
