Perhaps he finds it more desirable to eat and/or get a drink near the stadium as opposed to somewhere on the way. Hypothetically, if given both options, ask yourself what you would rather do. For example, Bell MTS Place has multiple restaurants and bars within a two block radius, would you rather stop somewhere on the drive, such as on Regent, Provencher, St, James, West Portage etc. before a game, or somewhere within that two block radius? It appears that blueandgoldguy has a comparable to hold Investors Group Field up to. His "complaining" appears to have reason.
