Question for mlsintoronto

So, ummm, like what did you guys do with the 15,000 or so seat cushions that littered the field after our first win?

Just wondering is all...

**Hitcho** · 06-22-2009, 03:25 PM

get 'em out, dust 'em off, and let's go again Paul!

MLSE would only need to pay for another few thousand, so it wouldn't even cost much!

**prizby** · 06-22-2009, 03:26 PM

loool, just permanately seal them to the seat :P

**Don Julio** · 06-22-2009, 04:18 PM

They were handing a tonne out off a float in some parade later that summer..

**mlsintoronto** · 06-22-2009, 04:30 PM

BMO re-purposed them. I've got one in my office. Don't know where the other 19,999 went.

**trane** · 06-22-2009, 04:32 PM

Gerba? Please some answer? Is he going to be able to play against NYRB?

Re-purposed? Didn't they have the date and match details on them along with "official opening of BMO Field" or something?

Wow. BMO are even cheaper than MLSE - who woulda thought?!

**spezz44** · 06-22-2009, 04:43 PM

dont regret throwing mine for a second, would be a nice keep sake though.

**Hitcho** · 06-22-2009, 04:46 PM

^ Heh, yeah, they should have handed them all out again to people as they left the stadium. That would have cleaned up the mess!

Hope so. Coaches want to keep the guys focused on the road ahead...not give them any excuses, so we're still working on it. At this point I'd say we'll do something after warm up, and with one or two players to represent the team. Need to defer a little bit to the judgement of the coaching staff here, while still giving you all an opportunity to celebrate it.

The good news is the team is not resting on this in any way.

Whatever we do I'll come on here and tell you so you can prepare. For now plan on being at the stadium (in your seat) around 7:10pm.

I know where one is.

That's my sisters pub in London.

She just divorced the Arsehead who's responsible for that little flag.

How about AFTER the match. Celebrating 2 VICTORIES will be even better.

**SmokedPanda** · 06-22-2009, 05:23 PM

i found 4 on ebay http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...%3DI%26otn%3D2

**rocker** · 06-22-2009, 05:30 PM

i remember getting my seat cushion at the gate and trying to carry it around with a hot dog and drink. I thought it was a pain in the ass (pardon the pun) to carry around, and I didn't think I needed a goddamn seat cushion of all things.... so before the game I just left it in the washroom on the counter. I wish I still had it!

**gmacpheetfc** · 06-22-2009, 06:36 PM

I have another question

Why aren't all the goal counted towards the stats on the Torontofc website? says Amado is leading with 5 but really he has 7 as does De Ro??????

MLS stats. CC games don't count.

Although there should be a place on the site that details the records and stats for this competition.

2 years later you're asking JonO? LOL!

**JonO** · 06-22-2009, 11:33 PM

Well I was just thinking about it now. Is there a statue of limitations on stupid questions that I should be aware of?

**Inswingingwingman** · 06-23-2009, 05:45 AM

There will always be stupid people...so the number of questions is somewhere near infinity.

The problem with seat cushions (cause I drag one around lots) is how the carry the sucker. Maybe I'LL make one with a hidden zipper so I can put wee bottles of scotch in the padding....hmm.....hmmm..
