Post here if you are a TFC supporter and you don't live in Ontario.
Just curious to see how many TFC supporters are there outside of Ontario
And how did you get into TFC?

“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
-Eduardo Galeano
There are a lot of them on the board already. Respect!
from there but moved not sure if that counts

Q: Where you at?
A: None of your bees wax.
Q: Why TFC?
A: As a soccer fan it was the only MLS team in the country and the only Canadian team in an U.S. league. Also the team was billed similarly as the Raptors team in 1996. It was "the team" where Canadian players could play within their own country and it would be helpful towards developing future young players. Both teams were sold as "second national teams" in their own sport.
PATRIOTISM:
It's also patriotic to cheer for TFC just like it is to cheer for any Canadian hockey team during the playoffs regardless of whether you like the team or you like hockey.
Inter Milan: I've been a fan of Inter for almost 16 years, why? Roberto Baggio....than it was Ronaldo....than it was Francesco Toldo.....than Ibrahimovic. The team has always been entertaining and heartbreaking.
Canadian National Cricket Team: I was watching the highlights during the hour broadcast of Skysports on FSW and my first thought was "I hope they are able to at least compete", because I never heard of the team. As usual the final results were heartbreakingly close, but I decided I would pay attention to their campaign mainly because they were representing our country.

Calgary,
Kind of default interest that has grown over time, as TFC was on CBC and I loved football/soccer, they became my MLS team. I have seen TFC in Chicago, I will see them in Edmonton and hopefully Portland. One day at BMO.
Montreal,
I'm from Toronto but i live in Montreal now

You don't pick your team, the team picks you.

The non Ontario thingy is kinda funny. My fellow 75MB supporters from Buffalo are closer to BMO field than I am
I live in portland oregon but picket a team in 08 and it was Tdot! having DeRo made it easy!
Calgary. But right now I am cheering from Phuket, Thailand.
I live and work in Munich but am originally from Toronto. Incidentally, does anyone know how I can watch TFC matches from Europe? I'd even be happy with watching a day late somehow.
Fredericton, NB. Got away from the beautiful game for a while but back in when a friend introduced me to TFC. Made my first visit in '09 to watch the 1-0 defeat to the Puerto Rico Islanders. Beautiful stadium and great supporters even though we managed only to get tickets in the P.R. supporters' section. /facepalm

Supporter from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia since day 1. Married to a Vancouverite that I managed to get to stick with TFC after the Caps were announced to join MLS.
Raised in Toronto, spent a couple of years in Vancouver, before settling in Flin Flon, Manitoba 17 years ago.
Proud supporter of TFC since inception, and will be still when we leave here and the wife drags me back to BC...
Regina. Started following CCL in late 2008 on CBC (yeah bitch me out for watching the l'impact, I was just happy Canada was winning at soccer somewhere). I wasn't even aware there was pro futbol in Canada until that.
I wasn't willing to say I was an Impact fan before making an informed decision. I started learning about the three Canadian clubs and felt that Toronto FC was the one I identified most with. In January 2009, I bought football manager and took them to an MLS Cup . And in the Spring of 2009 I watched my first TFC match. The rest is history.
From Nova Scotia, live in Thompson, MB
Local Detroit footie people do a lot of stuff at the Claddagh, in Livonia off of I-275 at Six Mile Road and Haggerty Rd. They don't have Direct Kick though, so MLS games on ESPN & FSC are the ones we can get. We watch a lot Prem games there, if thats of interest.
Now that TFC is on TSN it may be easier to find places in Windsor willing to put the game on.
New York City. Originally from Oakville, but I live down here now.
