NEW MOSAIC STADIUM SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION OPENING
That is NOT an artist’s rendering. That’s from the SE corner of New Mosaic Stadium off my camera!

Tight squeeze!

More of the second level club lounge …
The “open” concept I wasn’t too good at communicating to fans a few months ago. From the third level, you can see down into the second level …

A real nice touch with the Rider logos on the outdoor luxury suites …

Looks amazing
Looks absolutely fantastic! Can't wait to see a game in this beautiful place!
Finally! And wow, it looks incredible. And I imagine the Rider specific facilities will be all the more impressive upon completion. I really hope it can bring in some amazing talent our way.
It looks amazing, glad it belongs to Sask.

WOW! That looks AMAZING!! I hope you enjoy your new booth, Rod!!
Looks like Regina can now officially hand off the baton for worst stadium in North America to Calgary
Got my Rams ticket in the mail. Really looking forward to Oct 1.
Really wish they would get to me about my season tickets already…
I'm sure if we wait long enough the Trolls will have something idiotic to say about this beautiful facility. The always seem to be able to find a new low. The nice thing is none of them have enough money to get into these games, and believe me we're better off without them.
Is that based on a social study of internet behaviour correlated with income or are you just making things up?
I've got my Rams tickets last week.
Thanks for all the photos.

I hear the Rams game there is almost sold out, except for some season ticket flex packs that include an October 1st ticket.
The photos are great. Can't wait to see if for myself. Sure hope the fans will get to see the Rider's side of the facility once it is done. I would love to see what we are paying for.
Great pics Rod! How many times did you pinch yourself saying that this is all ours!! It's absolutely spectacular! This is well deserved for the fans and people of this great province. This will attract players without question and I hope that we see steady improvement this year and into next year. Thanks again for the tour!!
No worries, I'm sure the local village idiot will be hosting his own news conference to voice his disgust at what a crappy white elephant the stadium is and how he's going to run for mayor again to take down the corrupt regime that built it.

That stadium looks absolutely amazing. As good as any NFL stadium other than the capacity
The pillars that look like the "old" Mosaic benches are awesome. Cool touch.
They are the actual benches…we were all wondering why they replaced parts of the benches on the east side when we were at the first game this year. Thinking, why replace them when the place is done. Now that I see the photos today, I know where the benches went. 🙂
Wow! That really does look amazing!
Where's Cindy?
Have a closer look at the photos ..

The only (and I truly mean only) thing I don't like about new stadium is being built in the worst neighbourhood in western Canada. They are catching kids breaking into the place weekly and it's not even open yet. You will never get other businesses building in that cesshole of Regina, and that's really too bad, cause the stadium could have been an anchor for an entertainment area.
