I'm pretty sure that article confirms the front 5 rows are going to be separated from the rest of the section. I do not like this.
I do not like that all.
Toronto 'til I die - but I think they're trying to kill me.
I was hopeful where the stairs used to be, that would be an fenced gate that would at least open for us to descend down. Guess we'll have to enter from the corner and show tickets there, so not going to be able to cram people into the front area as per usual.
Really fucking sucks. Gonna want to move my seat back into the main part of the section next year if I can.
Were also going to be at ground level. Where's the capo stand going to go?
All of this for the fucking Argos.

nah, i doubt they would do that ryan. I would imagine that, that railing is removable and will not be in place when we have the bottom seats in there. I cant seem them blocking it off that way. if anything where the stairs are that railing comes out so we can walk down through there. less people walking at field level is probably better in their eyes. Also the bottom seats probably dont go all the way down to field level. that way we still have a capo stand.
Ya what about the capo stand?
From the Winnipeg Free Press article:
"Each experience, as we go through it, will define to people what they should and shouldn't be expecting," said Hunter.
Reminder, I'm heading to BMO Field this afternoon. Any questions or things you want me to look for? Let me know here or on Twitter @KurtLarSUN ...
Nothing specific to the field but I'm curious if MLSE is planning on taking a Barcelona-light strategy whereby they reinvest their Leafs/Raptors profits into TFC to grow its revenue generating abilities over the long term so that one day it may be just as large if not the largest sports revenue source.
Here are what the two little stands in the north end look like, wonder if it will be someting similar to fill in the first 6 row in the south end.

Wouldn't they just keep rows 1-XXXXX in the south, and if they add a few rows field level, call it A,B,C,D... I can't seem them shifting all of our seats down. Maybe I misread as I showed up late...
Also, doesn't the new roof kinda seem like a cheap umbrella that someone is holding really high above your head? It's only pictures at this point, but I'm curious to see what impact that has on the south. A bit of misty rain is one thing, a new giant wind tunnel is another. Eep!
Here is a view from the south end.

As per Jeff Bradley's tweet capaticty is now 30,226.

Was in BMO last night briefly and I will say that the roof on the southend doesn't appear to be as high as it looks in pictures.
Still high but not as bad as in person.
