| No. I don't go to most of them actually because the travel to the ground is horrifying, but I go to about 3 or 4 every season + every Canadian Championship match |

| Nice. How's the level of play over there? Is it pretty much like watching amateurs or do they play and act like professionals? |

Very much like USL Pro.
Play like amateurs, act like professionals. |

| Edmonton actually has the worst attendance in NASL. We play in a really crappy old stadium in a crappy location. It doesn't help that the team's owners don't do a great job of promoting it. |

Let me describe the stadium for you.
It's called Clarke Stadium. It's quite old and what remains of the original structure is really run down and unappealing. Gridiron football markings are clearly visible during games because its primary use is being a football stadium.
Not even a quarter-mile from the stadium is the much, much larger Commonwealth Stadium. Also surrounding the area is an industrial area, a really run-down neighborhood, and Chinatown which in this city is absolutely filthy. Parking is AWFUL as is access to the stadium anyhow. |
