Post-Event Chaos: Rogers Stadium Attendees Face Major Delays and Rain
Toronto, ON - Attendees leaving Rogers Stadium after a recent event faced significant delays and challenging conditions, as documented in a video shared online. The footage shows a large crowd navigating heavy rain outside the stadium, with many individuals wearing ponchos and carrying umbrellas. Following the outdoor scene, the video transitions to a parking garage, where vehicles were observed at a near standstill, indicating substantial traffic congestion. The video's author reported a "huge wait to get into Downsview Station" and a "1 hour to get out of Yorkdale Parkade E," advising others not to park inside. Comments on the video echoed similar frustrations, with one user stating, "This looks like a nightmare," and another remarking, "Was fighting for our lives forreal." However, some attendees reported smoother exits, with one comment noting, "The go train line was peasy. Just bloody rain," and another finding a "shorter exit" from the parking lot. The incident highlights the logistical challenges of managing large crowds and traffic flow during major events, especially when compounded by inclement weather.
