Lived in Vancouver for 9 years until recently moving to Vancouver Island, was stoked for last year until it got cancelled. Now it's finally going ahead and I've moved an hour 40 ferry and hour and half drive away, go figure. I was still considering going until I saw the ticket prices. Funnily enough I lived in Perth for 30 years and now there's a double header there now too, go figure again. My brother was considering going but apparently the ticket prices there are also a bit ridiculous. Perth is good for motorsport but most of the supercross events over the past 20-30 years have been garbage, terrible tracks and some with speedway rope starts instead of actual gates, but happy they have a decent event now considering the Australian SX series fails to recognise Western Australia even exists (but that's a whole other rant...) 

Vancouver seems like a motorsport black hole in the time I lived there, especially since losing the IndyCar race. I hope the wsx is good and continues to grow along with the series as a whole which gives people outside of the AMA series a chance for some decent racing, but it's not going to go anywhere and attract the casual fan let alone the diehards if the cheapest tickets are near $80 Canadian.

The stadium was built for Expo 86 and is home to the BC Lions and Whitecaps. This is not the first Supercross held in this facility with the first being in the mid '80s. Field size should make for a great track. Sadly poor acoustics make the stadium horrible for concerts.

I'm sure all of you that attend will have a great time, sure it's not AMA SX, but it will still be a great show.

Best of all it's in your backyard.
