"Stand up for the TFC! Stand up for the TFC!"....
Lucky to have been to several Toronto FC soccer games this past season (TFC is Toronto's Major League Soccer team), I have had the pleasure of experiencing a torrential rain storm, getting soaked to the bone, having beer spilled all over my head, all while watching the game, and you know what; I barely noticed!
The atmosphere and incredibly loyal fan base (for a team that's only been around for 2 seasons and haven't made playoffs) is INCREDIBLE!
BMO Field was created as home base for our MLS team. Long overdue in a city of international football fanatics, the people of Toronto went crazy when they discovered a team was coming and a brand new field was being made for them.
Tickets sold out immediately, fan clubs were formed and BMO Field was christened with the rowdiest and yet, most appreciative fans for any Toronto sporting team. It is located on the Exhibition Place grounds, has a massive parking lot, and is also TTC accessible. On game day you will see the streets lined with red and fans rallying anyone and everyone who will pay attention to their chants and cheers.
The TFC and BMO Field are forever synonymous with each other, but BMO Field is also Canada's National Soccer Stadium and is helping to build a strong soccer foundation all around the country.
