Okay, break's over....

Anyone else planning on hitting one of the stops on the Police world tour?

The sidelines because the prices are going to be so high I and most supporters (supporters = cheap fans with no money) won't buy seats there anyway and the entire north end is going to fill up like it does now with kids going to the games with their AYSO soccer teams.

That would leave us the upper deck and the south end. I'd be interested to know if the upper deck seats will high or low priced. If they are low priced they would be sweet. However they may be just as high priced as the sidelines.

That would leave us with the south end. Now, the rendering is alittle bizarre. It looks like at field level on the south end there are not any seats. Its a dark color like the rest of the area with seats but it appears to not have any rows and is flat. Could this be were the stage for concerts is? I don't know. Then there are seats up above the south goal sandwiched between two structures. These sections apear to be small sections. Could this be where the FO has always planned on having the supporter sections?

And I say sections with the letter "s" due to I've always thought that once the stadium gets built the Loyalists and the RCB are going to have to be in the same general area. Again, I don't think the FO is going to let two supporter groups take up two entirely different areas of the stadium. And when I say "take up" I say that becuase you have to count on the FO not selling any tickets in those sections.

These are all things we need to think about and soon.

All good points, Cup. I think the upper deck might actually be pretty cool, though we all like being really close to the action as well.

Probably we'll just have to wait and see what the cheapest seats are, and go for those?

Really that close... I looked on TicketMaster and only found Vancouver as the closest.
I can do Vegas. That would be awesome.

Good to see a bit of noise concerning our support group as things got really quiet and we got really off tangent with all this stadium nonsense. (Hey lots of taxpayers are really ticked off, but I am confindent that in 5 years, the soccer fans will be packing the stadium and silence everyone who claims the team isn't going to survive) But in any case, can't wait for opening day on April 7th.

Let me invite EVERYONE who has been reluctant about coming over to join us to please come over and stand and yell with us. I think E32 doesn't have the problem with the ticket Nazis as does the RCB section (38?) as they have much more expensive seats than we do. (Better yet, bring a flag along and I guarantee no one will ask for your ticket.)

We had one game last year where they were only checking the tickets of those people who were wearing black t-shirts.

We had another game where we were told under no circumstances were we to stand on the benches.

Yet another game where the orange shirts came down on several occasions and checked the tickets of everyone in the front row.

It was a joke last year.

I was told not to stand on the benches once.

I think part of the concern is we've had people jumping up and down on the bleachers in the past and a few have needed repair. I watched one of them literally give way right before my eyes and fortunately everyone who fell forward landed safely on their feet.
