First time being inside since the name change, and a little disheartened that they covered up the murals in the upper level corners with just the charcoal-grey branding (and 100 level/upper suite level deck facing)...

Surprised to see Scotiabank is in blue after the record amount payed.
 
I would rather that they not be allowed to cover up that much more of the window.

^^ The inner rectangle is the extent of the existing screen

I'm all for bigger TVs, but the massive S logo is pretty awful. They're significantly reducing the animation and light that the glass extension provided in favour of saturation advertising. Reminds me of Kramer and the Kenny Rodger's Chicken Roaster sign.

Agreed. I've been to a Raptors playoff game with a brother and enjoyed watching the huge crowd assembled below. The "Maple Leaf Square" has been a big success allowing fans to watch the game outdoors and celebrate, but the additional logo just blocks out some of the views in and out of the arena.
