When it comes to events in this city, unless it is not right next door with free parking that requires little walking, people get lazy

But the Ticats have been filling Ivor Wynne for years (not all years, but many years). And Ivor Wynne's parking is crap ... so people walk a few blocks or take the bus. At least as far as I've seen the dozen or so times I've gone to see the Ticats.

You do have a point. The Cats do have about 16,000 die hards that will watch them play just about anywhere. I guess what I meant to say was that to many people (not everybody but many people), no matter how much parking and access there is it will not be enough. Parking could be $1 and it would be too much. You could park across the street from the stadium and it would be too far.

Getting back to the Ottawa stadium, I beleive much of that parking will be filled with retail, and condos. How did they (the potential Rough Riders or whatever they're called owners) manage to get private investment?
