Hi! Has anyone been to an away game at Chicago Fire? We're going in August and wondering if anyone has any info about which section buy tickets in, and whether there's a TFC pre-game plan and/or ways to travel to the ground together. Thanks

Hey Jenni, I bought a pair in section 134 which is their away supporters section. My friend an I are going to the Jays-Cubs game at Wrigley at 1:20pm CST and going to take the "Pub-to-Pitch" bus from the Globe Pub to the Fire game, departing at 5pm. There's a closer bus that leaves AJ's at 4:30 but opting for more time at the Jays game if necessary. If you're not going to the baseball game there are lots of pickup pubs and drinking cans is allowed on the bus. You can buy bus tickets here: https://www.chicago-fire.com/matchday/pubtopitch
I'm in a small supporters group so not sure what the big-boys have planned in terms of pre-game meetups but it should be awesome! Anyone else here making the trip?
You can shoot an email to our official awayteam@voiceinthestands.ca for more info and stay tuned for meetup/festivities details later
Members get organized together and ahold of all this info earlier, so think about joining in!
It's in the members only section. You need to join our group to get the tickets. http://redpatchboys.ca/membership/

Just seen this! Thanks so much. We're going to Jays Cubs on Friday. Bound to be an amazin weekend. Trying to follow the emails below to see where most people will be getting together. Hope to see you there
Hey Jenni, we're doing the exact same thing as you! Jays game on Fri afternoon then TFC on Saturday evening. There are about 9 of us travelling, we have tickets in the TFC section, 134. Does anyone know if 9 of us will be ok on a Chicago Fire supporters bus doing the pub to pitch thing? Would be good to all meet up in the same bar somewhere downtown before the game
There are 3 breweries within 1 mile of the Globe Pub...if drinking is your thing. Great place to grab cans for the bus trip/tailgate...and post game of course!

Spoke to the guy in the Fire ticket office I bought my tickets from and he said that the Fire are trying to organize supporter group buses from downtown to Toyota Park for TFC fans. Anyone here heard about this? I asked him to let me know if this goes ahead. I don't want to buy tickets for a Fire bus if I can go with other TFC fans
His name is Louis and his email is lcaruso@chicago-fire.com
He organizes the visiting fans tickets
I'm so slow on this forum, sorry. Great news, we'd love to get together with other TFC fans for the game. I can see there's a few of you at least.
@ChrisFizic no one replied on the email address you suggested.
@YYZ_Fan & @Scotty74 - thanks for the info on tickets and buses, will email this guy now. Hopefully we can all get together for a few beers first.
Louis just wrote back and said. "When I speak with visiting fans. I ask the traveling supporters if they would like to organize a bus from downtown. Your fans declined to organize a bus for general fans for this match."
No idea whether he was talking about TFC, RPB or another supporters group. Anyways I have emailed RPB again to see if anything is being organized.
Things will be in the works as we get closer to the date everyone. Including a meetup beforehand on the ground in Chicago, which is standard. Members can get involved with all this planning ahead of time!
You should come by Joe's on any match day before then and say hi!
of course of course - there'll likely be a large pub gathering before heading out. Keep an eye out for updates, here, social media etc
Hi everyone! I have one ticket available for the game in Chicago...all info is posted in the Ticket Trader section...if you know of anyone needing a ticket please send them my way!
Cheers!
Jen
Does anyone know if the RPB still have tickets for sale?
Nope but I have one if you need it
Fire are sold out of tickets!! Nothing left in the away section! I bought 4 standing room only tickets and will hope that my Red friends will make room for us in 134.
I have no idea what we will do before the match other than the tailgate in the south lot that's designated "Away tailgate section". We do plan to do some tourist stuff!!
I am also going to the Friday Jays/Cubs game. I have two extra tickets for the Jays game if anyone is interested. Sec 114 row 13. I paid $340USD for the pair. That's all I want for them. Let me know if anyone's interested.
