"It's an exploration to see if our fans and our future fans want us in that stadium," Argos co-owner David Cynamon said. "It needs to grow [BMO Field has only 20,000 seats], so that's a project in itself. But first things first, let's make sure our fans want to move before we even talk about moving."
The Argos believe they could increase their season-ticket base by at least 3,000 (from about 13,500) by moving to BMO field. And their interest has been piqued of late by buzz that the city, which owns the stadium, and Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, which operates it, have discussed adding 10,000 additional seats to accommodate demand for Toronto FC.
