My husband and I recently visited the Olympic Stadium, or better known as the “BIG O”, yesterday. Being born and raised in Montreal, and having spent most of my adult life there, being back in Montreal was nice. Even though I am not a big baseball fan...
I've been once, and that was one time too many. I love baseball, baseball anywhere is good, so most of the time I won't care if the place is gross, but this time, it wasn't acceptable. I'll give them this, there's hot dogs and nachos, and baseball is...
Pros: Inexpensive, easy access by subway Cons: No one at the games, too much concrete
Olympic Stadium is a terrible design for baseball and doesn't draw major league crowds, but at the same time, it is the most inexpensive place you can see a baseball game. If you're in Montreal and you like baseball, by all means take the subway to a...
Pros: None. Cons: far from core of city, too big, too old, falls apart easily
I've been going to see baseball games at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal for over 15 years, and each year it gets more depressing... the on field product has been shaky for sometime, but the real problem is the stadium itself. Built from the summer...
Stadiums such as the King Dome in Seattle or Three Rivers in Pittsburgh are simply boring and unattractive. The Olympic Stadium of Montreal, however, keeps the viewer amused during the slow stretches of the game with its ridiculous tower, excessive...
Pros: Great historical landmark Cons: Not designed for baseball
I live in the Montreal area and I can tell you, the Olympic Stadium is a landmark. Not many cities can boast to have a stadium that was used in the Olympics. However, this stadium is far from being designed for baseball and far less for baseball in...
Pros: City is a mix of New York and Paris. Tickets are dirt cheap. Cons: No one comes to the games, city doesn't care.
I've been going to Olympic Stadium for four years. I go to college in Up-Upstate NY (almost Canada) and it takes me about an hour and a half to get to the stadium. Getting there...ok, NOT getting there is impossible. You can see the stadium from just...
Pros: Olympic Tower Cons: Ugly, Old and Uncomfortable
I went to Montreal with a school trip and we went to Olympic Park to watch an Expos game. It is the worst stadium I have been in. It is old and the seats are not comfortable at all. The view of the field is not good and the team is awful. The playing...
Pros: easy access from subway, good legroom Cons: fans don't like it and don't take care of it
This is a stadium best reached by using the subway. I had high hopes when I first saw it, but really it's the locals that seem to be causing the problems. The night I was there I witnessed a local habit of trying to cheer the team on by pounding on...
No wonder all the young guns leave montreal. One it's Montreal, Two they have to pay Canadian Taxes, and Three, their home park in Olympic Stadium. Lets see the design is pretty cool, and the elevator ride up to the top of the observation tower is...
Pros: Clean, spacious, good sightlines Cons: looks dated, artifical turf
Driving up from Vermont, I was pretty excited to see Montreal. I had never been to Canada before, and was looking forward to knocking off another park from my list of ballparks I hadn't seen yet. I should say, however, that my excitement was somewhat...
Pros: Reasonable prices for tickets, enjoyable but different kind of baseball experience Cons: Stadium doesnt give you that baseball spirit and feeling. Not a baseball park like Fenway or Yankee Stadium.
Maybe its just me, but I love the city of Montreal. So perhaps this stadium will get a better review than it should...but what the heck....hear me out.
The stadium itself does not feel like baseball at all. No being out in the...
