    Ok I will answer the question properly LOL. I think the weirdest thing that I have from TFC is from the groundbreaking ceremony when the stadium renovations were going to start two years ago. They told us season ticket holders to come to a ceremony so I drove more than an hour to the stadium on a weeknight. They had the real party for the media and VIPs earlier that day. Our reception was cheese and crackers and what was left of the massive BMO Field shaped cake that the earlier party didn't eat. You could see the setup they had for all the hot food earlier that day but we didn't get any. They gave out these little gold shovels encased in plastic with the date. Seemed like kind of a crappy gift. It has no meaning to me and just reminds me of the day I drove all the way downtown for cheese and crackers every time I look at the bloody thing....and I have 4 of them because I dragged my family there that day too.

    Now this is something I am proud of, have an album signed photos by all 182 players who have played at least one game for the Reds over their 10 seasons. Raheem Edwards become the 183rd last week, will have to get some photos signed by him tomorrow.

    Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!

    not strange or funny but very proud of one piece I have. A yellow long-sleeved Stefan Frei jersey that he wore when we clinched the Canadian championship in July 2011. My sons were 4 and 6 at the time and they were in the front row of S127 and he came over and threw it at them. Added bonus - it had the captains arm band on it! We waited outside of gate 4 and he signed the jersey for my boys. It's hanging in a frame in my boys room and although Stefan is long gone we cherish the jersey and memory.

    you got them at the concession stand. I can't remember how much it cost, but were an option if you wanted to buy pop.

    Those plastic cups are $20 with re-fills of any soft drinks in the stadium. Good thing is that even if you bring these cups to next game it's still a free re-fill.

    I try not to drink pop but for those who do it's not bad lol

    I got a broken soul that has been run over again and again and again.

    I chose not to get the matching ball of despair but I'm sure somebody has that set, I'm told its very popular.

    I buy those cups every year. They are the collectible cups and are $8 and you get free pop all year. Just wash them out and bring them the next game and they will fill them back up. I have a couple from each year in a stack in the basement. This year's cup doesn't have anything special as far as holograms or players but it is still good for free refills all year.

    Another cool thing we have is some signed posters and pictures from Greg Sutton. Not a big superstar or anything but it was kind of cool how we got them. We went on a roadtrip to see TFC play NYRB at Giants Stadium in NJ in 2008 and we were sitting around in the parking lot in our TFC gear pregame among a ton of Red Bull fans when we see this older lady in a TFC shirt walking towards us. She asked us if we want to tailgate with them since we are TFC fans so we said sure. Turns out it was Greg Sutton's parents and they were there to see Greg play that day so we spent the afternoon drinking with them. They took our information and had Greg sign a bunch of stuff for our kids and mail it to us. We got it a few weeks later after the trip. Thought that was great.

    Thats pretty great.
    I myself have a few signed kits including one from the 2014 year from the whole team, several signed by DeRo, one signed by Bradley Dero and Defoe. Got alot of odds and sods in my collection, mostly stuff they gave away for free. Still waiting on that seat cushion to pop up for sale. wish i never threw mine.

    TFC replaced the grass a few years ago when they put in the new drainage system. I had a piece of the sod in a flower bed until last year when a friend decided that it should be "weeded". I'd asked them to cut the grass while we were away for a couple of weeks in the summer.
    O, Maple Leaf around the world, You speak as you rise high above,
    Of courage, peace and quiet strength, Of the Canada that I love.
    Remind us all, our union bound by ties we cannot sever,
    Bright flag revered on every ground, The Maple Leaf forever
