Drove past on my way to work, the "All for One" signs are all along the Lakeshore and the bubble is down. Time to rejoice!

that's good!

I might be mistaken, but I think it came down much later last year.
Well a few weeks later anyway. Am I wrong?

Probably, but our first game was later last year as well.

It did come down later last year. This year, it was scheduled to come down mid-last week, but I'm guessing that the cold snap we got delayed that slightly.

I figured they'd keep it up this week for the players to train under, but I guess the stadium staff need time to prep the ground for the mayhem we expect April 4th...all good!

it was actually supposed to come down in the first week of april...but when the mls schedule was made TFC had a match in the first week of april so the bubble had to come down earlier...

i know this because the TSA indoor season was supposed to end April 3rd...but it was revised shortly after the mls schedule came out, and the indoor season ended march 20.

Just checked the weather for April 4.
5C with rain.
I think the home opener might have been scheduled a little early this year.

Not saying it's going to be warm, but we're still a little way out for a reliable forecast

Who cares? Just wear layers.

You want to start every season with 4 road games?

You can't trust Toronto weather 14 days ahead, you can't even trust it 14 hours ahead.

that was the night a ball went flying into our section, and the guy behind me grabbed it... and then we successfully hid it for the guy.. he was able to sneak out after the match with the ball hidden beneath a blanket.
security looked soooo hard for that.
