    Actually it should be 'Historical look at the National Soccer Stadium'
    the bank put their name on it only about half way through construction
    so it was (and is) the NSS before anything else.

    true..... but it's now called BMO Field and not many people actually know it was called the NSS.

    There was a time when Kitchener was called 'Berlin Ontario' and The Artist Formerly known as Prince was just called 'Roger'.

    wow... the turf looked really plush when it was new. It really is pathetic that it hasn't been maintained. I pay $2500 per year for my season tickets and it frustrates me that if they are not going to put grass, at least keep the turf up to par. If its worn out, repair it!!

    Love your stuff bro. But I couldn't make it through. Maybe its because I have a 2 year old kicking me in the head at this exact moment.

    Actually, the voice-over sounds like someone trying to discretely record a voice-over in their cubicle when they should be doing some other work.

    "still pretty hollow", "pretty sparse looking", "drab industrial looking"

    funny enough, these can all still be used to describe BMO field today.

    Well he's back to Prince and the music he made was under Prince and later.
    He doesn't play any songs that were made under Roger.
