dimensions = The Huskies Stadium is a Canadian football stadium in Halifax, Nova Scotia, that is host toSaint Mary's Huskies . It has a capacity of 9,000 (can be increased to 11,000). [ [http://www.worldstadiums.com/north_america/countries/canada/nova_scotia.shtml World Stadiums - Stadiums in Canada :: Nova Scotia ] ] It was built in 1970. It is a possiblestadium site if Halifax were to ever get aCanadian Football League team, but because of its prohibitively small capacity, it is likely a new stadium would have to be built for the CFL. It has hosted manyCanadian Interuniversity Sport national semi-final football games.On
June 11 ,2005 , the stadium hosted an exhibition game between theHamilton Tiger-Cats and theToronto Argonauts to gauge Halifax's public support for a CFL franchise. The game was called "Touchdown Atlantic ". For the game, the stadium's capacity was temporarily augmented to 11,000.References
