BMO Field is cold like Elland Road

Excellent event and long walks for me today after work. BMO Field can be a very cold stadium with the rain and wind. Only Elland Road in Leeds was comparable from what I remember and that stadium in Leeds had metal seats, compared to mostly plastic seats at BMO. After the match, I walked a fair distance in the storm, until I could find a street where a taxicab could pick me up. Once back to the North York hotel, the sports news reported the teams were in a fighting incident after the game with Toronto police involved with Club America.
