    Itinerary is into TO on tuesday, out on thursday morning, overnight train (via a 10hr stopover in Buffalo) to Chicago arriving friday morning, out of chicago on sunday mid day. Since you'd be coming from Vancouver I have no cost worked out for that, but flight back from Chicago was about 240 to seattle then bussing up here

    I'd suggest asking somebody in the Toronto FC front office, such as a Red Patch Boy.

    Ok, so the guy at TFC says they don't do a link for away fans for some reason so you have to call him directly, they have sectioned off 50 seats for us which will probably be enough! His information is below give him a call and he'll sort your tickets

    Chris, let me know when you buy your Chicago (July 14) ticket, since I might be interested in going. Maybe someone should start a thread for the away Chicago game, so we can all coordinate the hotel, flight, and tickets.

    By the look of the crowd yesterday, the difference between announced spectators and actual spectators is soon going to be higher than the actual spectators.

    You won't be alone. Last year I was amazed how many TO based Whitecaps fans there were who came out to the games.

    I may have seen some of you folks at last year's rain-out/police escorting us outside situation; and I may have seen some more of you folks a month after that during the back-to-back games weekend situation.

    I hope to see even more of you fine folks in July. It'll be shortly after my birthday, here's hoping the Caps bring me a lovely present!

    Also, if anyone is on the strictest of budgets, I've got a couch and ample floor in my lovely shack in Midtown Toronto, 20 minutes away from BMO Field by cab/50 by TTC.

    we gotta get a march going to the game or at the very least try to meet up with as many caps fans at a pub before the game, dhawk you knoow the area well. what does everyone think and what seats did you get us/

    so now that the second game is coming up pretty quick now, i think it would be great to find a place where we can all meet before the game. Just want to see who would be down....maybe i could book us a spot at a local bar near bmo..................

    there is a shoeless joes very close to the stadium that we could go to, and i know TFC supporters like to go their before the game, but since we are going early we could sneak in before and take over the place......
