The Montreal Alouettes have played most of their home games at Percival Molson Memorial Stadium, located on the campus of McGill University

If you want to watch a real professional football game, head over to Toronto & watch the Bills. They're rumoured to be playing the Indy Colts next season at the Rogers Center. I wouldn't waste my time & money with the Crappy Football League.
i will generally see a bills game once a year, but im a seahawks fan so isnt quite as exciting, i will be traveling to minnesota to watch the hawks play the vikings, point with the alouettes was thier season is during the nfls off season so thats pretty cool, i could probably stay the weekend in montreal, get a couple pieces of puss, drink some good canadian beers and go to an alouettes game for the price of just the ticket for a bills game at rogers, but i do need to visit toronto sometime
I don't watch much CFL but, in many respects, the rules make the game more exciting and you rarely get a boring game. Plus the small stadium (20,000-25,000) puts you closer to the action. I catch a game about once a year and it's always a fun atmosphere. And this is from a huge NFL fan.

There's obviously a talent gap between the CFL and the NFL but it's not as huge as some think it is. I don't think any top 25 NCAA Div 1 team would beat an CFL team. You could even reduce this argument to mathematics. How many players on a top rank NCAA Div 1 team even make it to pro football? Not to mention that different rules, field size, game dynamics, cater to different skill sets. Personnally, I think size especially on defense, is a bigger issue than skills.
