just got my tix for weds and sunday
man i am pumped and GIO looks like he is ready to roll
Ha, I just assumed that was the face value. Just another warning not to be pushing the pricing envelope. Kurt tweeted this afternoon he's not expecting a sell out. So he's probably heard something from the front office. Really too bad...
Manning mentioned today that they were at the 18-19k range,probs will get 21-22k for weds
If we can't sell out our first ever home playoff game I'm not too sure we can be all smug with the Argos fans.
Hope someone has realized the referee assignment for this match!!!!!!
Toronto FC vs. Philadelphia Union
BMO Field (7:30pm ET, ESPN2, UniMás | TSN in Canada)
REF: BALDOMERO TOLEDO
AR1: CJ Morgante
AR2: Ian Anderson
4TH: Silviu Petrescu
By making the playoffs, TFC is contributing more games than the regular schedule, extra games equals extra money, so why in the name of god are they milking ticket prices, they should be keeping it low to build the brand. It's all profit at this point, don't overmilk the cash cow!
Cheapest Playoff tickets for the other 3 knockout games this week:
LA Galaxy: $25 USD
DC United: $20 USD
Seattle Sounders: $30 USD
Betting line is up:
Toronto -143
Philly +428
Draw +305
Over under: 2.5/3 over -110.
Would you be able to explain what these numbers mean?
If you are looking to win $10 on Toronto FC (in regulation) ... you gotta wager $14.30. (Then you get $10 win plus your $14.30 wager returned to you.)
Or if looking to say win $100 ... you need to bet $143. (Then you get the $100 winnings plus your $143 back.)
So, it's a $1.43 risk to win $1.
Put $10 on Philly and you get $42.80 if they win (in regulation).
Or, say, $100 for $428 ..... and so on and so on.
Wow! Not surprised that MLSE is trying to milk as much as possible from the fans. I would have definitely bought tickets if they were charging the $45 like last year, but $75 is way too high. I wonder if they will lower ticket prices if they are still around the 20000 mark before the game.
In North America, midweek games are a tough sell for any team except NFL, some MLB, some NHL and some NBA.
Don't care.
We few, we happy few.
Seattle's $30 is $40 CDN.
MLSE is already unofficially lowering prices by their Monday email allowing friends of SSH to buy at SSH price. $45 is quite reasonable given that TFC is the highest spending club in the league, not that I expect any south end tickets to be available.

I've heard of checking the weather report for game day as far as how to dress, but to actually go?! Yikes. Well atleast you'll save money.
I'm very nervous about this game. Excited, but fearing the worst. Always am. Let's have fun with it whatever happens.
And I've heard casuals in shock about the prices. I'd be shocked if we were close to a sellout all things considered.

I would be more worried if Mo Edu hadn't had the freak injury.
They are a different team with a healthy Mo.

$72 tickets are available now, get 'em while you can
Win or lose, I'm going to attend this game with pride, I can tell my grandkids (don't have kids yet lol) and nephew (who's now a TFC fan, he was born on the same year as TFC and still has his TFC baby clothes!) one day that I was there for when TFC was playing on a roofless 20,000 seat stadium, I was there the first day they had a 30,000 covered stadium and I was there at their first playoff game.
“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.”
