I wonder if this was GolTv or Ole Ole that requested the bench seats for the games? Or if the FO is looking at putting a seating section in the North End?

Not crowded enough on concourses already? Maybe the Food building is about to become the new beer garden.

mlsintoronto said 1000


you are correct sir. We're working on a temporary 1000 seats for the PRI and RM games. of course now city hall is shut down so we don't know if we'll get building permits and approvals but we're pushing forward. I have no idea how this will look...this setup is really a trial.

But I'm also a fan of the patio. I like it.

I hope this is successful and can be a step forward towards a north stand.

^ this is what I am hoping for, and have been gunning for, for quite some time.

I really want to see a North section.
More so than any other expansion.

I see this as a good trial run.
These bench seats for the RM game are rather "terrace" like.
If they put in a permanent north section I doubt they would do the same.

Anyway... here's hoping... they could be our ticket to getting supporters united in one section!

i definately am going to buy a pair, i was going to buy a pair from a scalper off kijiji for 1000 lol....

people need to realise this is a once in a life time opportunity that your going to see this much high brand players in there prime, and not as a Zidane charity match.

If the seats where little pull out seats i will still buy them, so benchs sounds good, and it does seem as if MLSE is testing the waters for expansion.

Just got some in section 132, hopefully the bench seating isn't too bad.

itcan be squeezing the last bit out of supporters if supporters want to go to this game.

and like i said look at the positive ends of these bleacher seats

beer garden can be gone, North Stand could be built,

like Flatpicker said "they could be our ticket to getting supporters united in one section!

2 tickets for $275 (after fees) still seems way too much to me. I found a pair and had them in the cart, but couldn't justify paying that much to see one game where neither side really cares about the outcome.
