2020 Blue Jays General Season Thread

This would probably be the perfect time to do it if they are going to go ahead.  The Jays probably are playing in Buffalo again next year so you are minimizing your time playing outside Toronto.

Being able to maintain the location would be great, too. Keeps the stadium easy to get to via public transit. Terrible to drive to, but, any viable location that wouldn't be an awful drive would be terrible via public transit.

So what we would they replace it with?  Open air or another dome?

The other domes seem to have worked out the kinks of growing grass under glass.  With our climate another dome makes sense but would cost over a billion dollars.

I think you have to make it a dome unless you want it unusable during the offseason for other events.  If they are building a new stadium they are going to want a piece of the concert/travelling show scene and outdoor won't be an option.  I think we probably would end up with a non-retractable roof.

First visited the Dome in 2001 and it was feeling pretty old fashioned then. I know they did a lot of work since then, but it always didn?t quite feel right. Particularly having since been to several newer build parks. If they get the design right though it could be fantastic

I seem to remember in the early days sitting on the bench's at Exhibition Stadium in some pretty miserable weather for both the Jays and Argos.  Seems we survived it pretty well, although now that I am residing in an older guys body, I probably would appreciate some creature comforts.
