	Varsity Stadium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Varsity Stadium was a collegiate stadium, primarily used for Canadian football, but occasionally playing host to soccer and other events, that was situated on the grounds of the University of Toronto on Bloor Street West, roughly at its intersection with St. George Street in Toronto, Ontario.
		Varsity Stadium has for its entire history been host to the University of Toronto's collegiate Canadian football team, the Varsity Blues.
		Varsity Stadium continued to host the Canadian intercollegiate championship, the Vanier Cup, but that too moved to larger quarters such as Skydome (now known as Rogers Centre) as the popularity of the collegiate championship grew.

	Varsity Stadium
		Varsity finally got its much needed renovation in 1950, with the west grandstand replaced, and the east grandstand expanded to its modern configuration, bringing capacity in the grandstands to 21,739, and a maximum capacity approaching 27,000 with the use of collapsible bleachers.
		If Varsity is a gem of a football stadium, it is equal to that as a soccer stadium, and offers superb sightlines for both sports, as well as an intimacy that is rare in modern stadia.
		Varsity continues to be a useful stadium, being used for OUAA football, high school running events by the University of Toronto Schools, a few international soccer games, and summer athletic programmes.
