I have just created a new Facebook group, "Toronto FC fans living in Chicago". After 4 days, a grand total of 0 people have joined. If there is anyone living in Chicago who is a passionate TFC fan, as I am, please join up and maybe we can catch a few games together.

I'm a TFC seasons ticket holder who moved down here for work a couple of months ago. Will still do a couple roadtrips a year (recently returned from dismal PR result), and will come up for a couple of games at BMO per year. AS for your questions.
TFC forever
Bears
Leafs forever
Raptors
Jays (haven't figured out if Cubs or White Sox will become new 2nd favourite team, although I live by Wrigley so I'm leaning that way)

I hope there are some TFC fans in Chicago. Considering Chicago is Torontos sister city:

And there are a lot of people in Chicago who are of Canadian decent:

But on the same level it would be like me making a site for TFC fans in Ohio. I know it's just me.

None of the above - there were 21 people total TFC fans down there, not all in this pic. If you know the guys who were down there, ask a few of the younger guys about the pot-smoking ex-marine who drove them home. I was with him. And i'm sensing you think i'm full of it, but i'm done "proving" it to you...

What, like helping to start an offshoot of a supporters group who live 75 Miles + away from BMO? :D

Yeah, who would be stupid enough to do THAT!?!?

My sister lives in Oak Park and has been to Columbus twice to watch TFC. Is she a "passionate" fan, probably not but she prefers TFC over any other team in MLS.

TFC Longsleeves now known as Stencils has a bud named John who lives in Chi Town, he showed us around last yr. He supports TFC to.

I think he went by the name TFC Chicago Fan or something like that.

He's a cool guy, hope to see him again this yr to.
