You nailed it, @grayruby. I saw an Expos game at Olympic Stadium maybe late 1980's. It didn't help that the crowd was tiny. There was so much cement in the place that the acoustics were weird, too. Everything looked run down. I'm sorry I never saw a game at Jarry Park. I understand that was a weird experience.
Yes, I have heard many stories of Jarry Park from my Dad. My parents lived in Montreal before I was born. I believe Jarry Park is where they host the Montreal version of the National bank open tennis tournament now. The way that tournament works is they do half in Toronto and the other half in Montreal and it runs concurrently. So Toronto this year hosted the men's tournament and Montreal hosted the women's and then next year they will switch.
I haven't been to Montreal since 2010. I should take the wife and kids next summer. They have never been.
