[QUOTE="norcalbuff, post: 613692, member: 45734"] I remember hearing somewhere that the length of the turf at BC Place was just short of what it needed to be. Given that the US played Russia at Allianz Park last month, the fact that it is turf on its shouldn't be a problem. It probably wouldn't work for BC Place with the timing of MLS and CFL seasons, but another possibility for pitches with artificial turf would be to lay down a grass pitch beforehand like the USA 7s does in Vegas. Of course, they have plenty of time to do that because that stadium is unused at that time of year. I think Seattle might be a good place to host a finals series for the PNC as it has a good sized PI population (and is cheap to get to from other US location with large PI populations), is close to the BC border and also has decent links with Japan from its Japanese baseball players over the years.
