Metrolinx on Instagram: "Approximately 40,000 fans are heading to the Toronto FC vs. Inter Miami CF match this Saturday, May 9 — and many will use GO Transit to get there. Tap the link in bio to see how we’re using this event to test enhanced service and safety measures to help refine transit and operational plans for FIFA World Cup 2026™ and other large-scale events".

Although this won't be the first event to test the new FIFA temporary stands (Brazil vs TFC legends will), our May 9th fixture is expected to be the biggest spectator event ever held at BMO Field, before the FIFA world cup. It will serve as a "test" event to scope out how 40k+ spectators will find themselves around at the event.

My opinion? Oh its gonna be bad, a lot of problems will be evident and will need fixing if anyone cares to fix 'em. First of all, the damn lounge or whatever they added in the western concourse needs to be gone or re-done, the concourse is literally inaccessible as it is, and now imagine 40k+ attendees. Second, the bathrooms, we're cooked. Hopefully they add more. Third, exhibition station. It's just not equipped to handle 50k or 60k all at once. This was always gonna be an issue, so don't expect it to be a nice transition from train to stadium.

But I'm eager to see what the outcome will be, it will be a crazy day regardless. What do y'all think?
