"The Harder the Struggle, The Greater the Reward" - @OsoJ92AWAY DAYS - CHICAGO August 2017, MONTREAL March 2018
How about a game of TFC fans vs MLS Cup musical chairs? Boffo half time entertainment.
I was hoping that they would bring out a dozen ssh since year one and put them at one end of the pitch.
Then at the other end, in dazzling spotlights, a dozen seats with a banner above them "Your seats since the dawn of TFC".
Then off the loyal fans trot, towards their seats, but they have to dodge Ticketmaster drones, descending MLSE paratroopers, StubHub goons, an actual bandwagon of folks attending their first game and rabid Timbits players. All the while MLS is putting sponsors into the seats, so even if the dozen ssh manage to scamper through the obstacle course, all seats are occupied.
Then to give them comfort, alumni the likes of Dichio and Brennan can help them limp off and a slice of pizza will be offered to a weak round of applause.
Of course, no TFC email will follow either explaining or apologizing...
...makes a Nickelback and Celine Dion duet seem mild in comparison eh?
What is the odds on Kardinal Offishal making an appearance at some point? He seems to be at everything MLSE related.
We need Drake right behind the player's bench. I know he tries to rally the team up, but mostly looks like he's crying.
tweet from MLSE Live the Arkells have been outfitted with TFC jerseys this morning...(sorry can't post twitter from work)
They have a show in Buffalo that night and it's sold out. Takes them off the list.
Have they done half time shows the last couple of years? I know they use to, I hope those days are done!
I still say they should try for Drake and Rihanna.
There's a bit of a history with One-Hit Wonders doing the Half-Time Show, on top of more mainstream artists. Jimmy Eat World back in 2007 is probably the best example of that, or maybe Switchfoot (seriously, I can give you ONE fucking song of theirs). But Christina Aguillera performed once way back in 90s, so it hasn't been all no-names*.
Personally, I'd like to see a Canadian group or artist. No real preference, just home-grown would be nice. USS would be cool seeing as how their songs have been played at BMO Field during the pre-game. Drake would make sense too. That said, I saw Lenny Kravitz do the Grey Cup Half-Time back in 2007 and it was awesome as fuck.
* Disclaimer - Just because you listen to a band, at least realise that the vast majority of us have no fucking clue who they are anymore.
Did the USA , of all countries, just fix soccer? - C. Ronaldo, May 27th commenting on the FBI-led investigations into fraud and corruption throughout FIFA.
I want the Seattle Fight and Win dude for the halftime show.
How about Walk off the Earth?
I want a hot, uber famous singer in controversial attire, a wardrobe malfunction and an offensive gesture.
This will validate MLS

I think Tribal Rhythm Nation should be brought back to drum continuously the entire half time.
I wonder how much Esquire extra-time will be added on and also if they will deliver the match ball on time.
I'll be pissed if it's not timbits soccer!
