okay fuck it.... I'm adding 5 more because there's too much good shit!

- going to the all-star after party and hearing Marc say "how the hell did you get in here?"
- yelling at Mo from the stand 'Sub out Welsh' and having him grimace at me
- going to the open (really open) practice in Carolina
- I guess meeting a bunch of you numbskulls was pretty cool too.

///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\
In chronological order
1. Dichio's first goal
2. Edu's goal that sealed our first ever win
3. The Father's Day Massacre 4-0
4. Dicho's NER goal and pitch invasion

The good moments from the loses seem tainted.
Good thread!
1. Dichio 23:14
2. Cunny's late game winning goal in LA earlier this season
3. TFC's 4-0 victory over FC Dallas last season
4. Brennan's free kick goal against Columbus last season (TFC's first in history)
5. Rohan Ricketts' 2 goal outburst against Colorado at BMO earlier this season
Great topic Parkdale!
1.Away trip to Montreal-obvious reasons
2.Away trip to Chicago(despite the loss felt like old times following United away just with a more intimate number)
3.Dichio last second equalizer vs NER last season.
4.Montreal standing by the player enterance as our boys came off the bus 5 of us strong singing the T-O-R-O-N-T-O TFC song at each and everyone of the players then having JC, JimmyB, Dichio,Ricketts turn and smile at us as we did, Then a few mins later seeing Connie Roogs and Shane(dinodoc) coming down that road leading to Saputo.
5.Pitch Invasion last season.
No particular one better than the other.
M.U.F.C.U.M GAMBA OSAKA Toronto FC
Stealing Parky's format, in no particular order
Post your TOP 5 TFC Memories
- BMO home opener, the atmosphere!
- Dichio 23:14! Right in front of my corner!!! Everyone is jumping up and down, strangers hug, high-five, pat on the shoulder of each other, beer shower, seat cushions flies out, the camaraderies of supporters
- Streamer shower opposition corners, managed to hit a few perfect tosses
- Toronto FC 4, FC Dallas 0!
- Montreal Road Trip!!!!
- (Actually, impromptu singing of O Canada over and over again at ASG too, everyone's united. although it's a misunderstanding, but the mixed emotion of anger and patriotism at the moment is memorable, not TFC but oh well)
1. Elephant and Castle Toronto FC v Chivas USA - First game ever, so many months of anticipation realized. The bar being louder for the "coming up next TFC v Chivas" being on the screen than it was when the leafs beat the habs 10 mins earlier to almost squeak into the playoffs
2. First ever goal - jumping in the air, getting bumped and falling into the row in front of me and not being able to get up because I was cheering on the ground. looking up and seeing all the seat cushions.
3. Dichio's final goal of the season v NE
4. Home opener this season 08
5. TFC 4-0 Dallas
1. Winning a game
2. Winning a game
3. Winning a game
4. Winning a game on the road!!
5. Winning a game

The Legendary
RED PATCH BOYS

OMG I can't believe I forgot this one:
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
FUCK THE GALAXYYYYYY
FUCK THE GALAXY
FUCK THE GALAXY
FUCK THE GALAXYYYYYYYYYYY
And Blanco's Streamer Shower
And losing my Black and White Express Viginity
I'm surprised that you didn't mention getting into the private boxes in Carolina, getting beer, and having security say "how the hell did you get in here?"
1st game....I didn't know what to expect and I was blown away
Dichio's goals.....1st and last of last season
Pitch invasion
Streamers
Meeting Ricketts downtown the day he was announced and talking to him for a while
1) Seeing TFC lose our first 4 games ever
2) The goal-less streak
3) The game where half the stadium walked out (during the streak)
4) Lombardo miss the net for what seemed the 500th time
5) Cunningham missing an open net costing us a CL spot.
oooohhhhh! Did you mean "top 5" positive things?
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
1. Opening Day in 07
2. Dichio's 1st Goal
3. DC Roadtrip #1
4. DC Roadtrip #2
5. last game of the season '07
c'mon you Reds!
I'm surprised that you didn't mention getting into the private boxes in Carolina, getting beer, and having security say "how the hell did you get in here?"
it was more like Get the hell out of here!
but yeah, that was a definite highlight too. the whole Carolina trip really has too many great memories to count.
Watching RPN London puke before the match while the security guard just shook his head... that was a classic too!
///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\
Like Yelling at O'Brian (right before his team scored)
And our Tifo

Ya, sorry...that's what I meant.
My top 5
1. NER Post game field pitch - Pure jubilation
2. Raining seat cushions / first goal jubilation.
3. Father's day massacre, being at game with my daughter
4. My first road trip - MLS Cup - going to DC
5. Setting up for the TIFO last game of last season... being at BMO at 7 AM and just hanging around, walking on the pitch
Bonus items:
6. Night game last year against LA.
7. In front of shoeless last year before LA game, throwing streamers across the street
8. Sitting down with the NEE at the All Star Game. Exchanging jokes with Drew Carey and telling Rachael McAdams she hasn't called me in awhile.
9. Throwing a black streamer at Don Garber on live TV during his half time ESPN interview
10. Watching the quality of football at the All Star game. I don't care what anyone thinks, watching goals is fun.
totally.10. Watching the quality of football at the All Star game. I don't care what anyone thinks, watching goals is fun.
and watching a game where it doesn't matter if you win or lose is kind of enjoyable too. It takes the pressure off and you can just enjoy a good play for what it is.
