Funny nobody was complaining about the Skydome in the early 90's when it was sold out everynight , avg was amost 51,000 a game, over 4 million came out
Get a winning team ,everyone will be happy

Being a sh!tty team never seems to hurt attendance at the Leaf's games even when they had the old Garden.
People in Toronto are stupid about the Leafs, you can not compare the two

I agree.  You cant compare baseball to hockey.  A lot more hockey fans than baseball fans in Canada.  Which is why Toronto is always sold out, win or lose.  We love hockey.  Don't want to go too far off topic, but even with another team within 100km of Toronto, they both would be sold out.  Biggest questions no one knows the answer to, for how long, and at what cost.

Taking grandson to Legoland next week!
I might not ever want to leave, nevermind him.

Have fun.  Lots of kid things to do there. 

Merlin Entertainment, owners of LEGOLAND, has a policy that you have to have a child with you to get in (unless you're a guest of the Master Builder).

My brother has a VW rabbit and also finds the 2.5 thirsty but a torquey beastie.  Strangely, his 2.7 litre Cayman is more fuel efficient.

Sitting around the fire and catching up with old friends while having a few drinks and snacks on a beautiful warm summer night!  Just about perfect I'd say!  :)

Getting a call from Steven (who is bored at work) about planning a trip to NYC in mid-September.  Bonus - he has millions of Starwood hotel points, so accommodation would be free!
