Hey there, time traveller!

The squeaky fan gets the lift.
After an outpouring of complaints about poor sightlines following the installation of loge seating over the summer at the MTS Centre, True North Sports & Entertainment has announced it will raise every seat in the upper bowl by 2.5 inches.
“True North acknowledges that sightlines have been negatively impacted and affects the view of those patrons seated near the loge entrance (and) access points at the 300-level,” the company said in a release.
The work to boost all 6,500 seats in the upper bowl started a couple of days ago and is expected to wrap up by the end of November.
In the interim, an extensive review of the access and railing systems, which are made of steel and glass, is underway and unnecessary elements are being removed. This element should be finished by Nov. 15.
“True North accepts responsibility for the unforeseen problems created by the construction of the MTS Centre loge seating. We want to fix the problem correctly for the long-term benefit of all 300-level patrons,” the company said.
