game should be awesome, It's a sell out including TFC's allocation of 275 in section 134
So excited for the weekend - we're flying out early tomorrow morning.
Is The Globe the venue for pre-game beers on Sat? I'm not seeing anything about it anywhere other than this thread.
I just seen and have joined this forum. Me and my buddy are going to The Cubs Jays Game Saturday and then taking the pub to pitch bus to The TFC Chicago Fire Game from The Galway Arms at 5pm. Will anyone else be taking that bus? Kind of nervous whether to wear my TFC shirt on that bus or not lol. Might have to hide it until I get to the stadium lol. We bought standing room tickets so we will make our way to be around the visiting supporter section in 134. Are TFC Fans gathering anywhere outside the venue?
I also have a pair of tickets to Saturdays Jays Cubs game available. 160 USD or 200 CAN OBO.

Match Day meetup for road warriors on the ground:
AJ Hudson's Pub

They're expecting us and are a nice football friendly bar!
Spread the word/see you there!
In Chicago for a friend's bachelor party but I'm thinking of sneaking out for the game (they're not into soccer).
Anybody staying downtown? I might need a ride. Can chip in for gas.
Is there a bus or train from Chicago to Toyota park? We're basically on magnificent mile. Or we all ubering
Don't think so. I'm pretty close to there as well. Uber seems like the best option.
There is a bus. Have cash for an extra fare.

You have to take the Orange Line to Midway station and then the express bus to Toyota Stadium. From downtown the subway is about 25-30 mins and then I understand the bus is about 10-15 mins, though it runs every 20 mins. Or you can take the subway to midway and then a taxi from Midway to the stadium, which I understand is about $15-20. I think that is what I am going to do.
YOU PEOPLE WERE AWESOME
Heard the Seba Song clearly
The Clap was amazing
Well done
True Away fans
Amazing!!!!
I could hear you guys over the Fire supporters on TV. Best fans in the league, regardless of what Forbes says.
Hats off to the road warriors for the work they put in Saturday night. I could hear them clearly all game. The clap was amazing. Great job by all and I hope everyone got home safe. Oh and Forbes can pound salt
The roars after the TFC goals were awesome!
Amazing game and amazing support. Thanks all, I was proud to wear the shirt x
3 table-topping pts & a home feeling on the road for a party/match day in Chicago.
Thx AJ Hudson's for hangout hosting & all who travelled!
Good to meet a bunch of you and a good time in Chicago. AJ's was a cool place to hangout despite lots being down the road at Wrigley and the stadium being so far out of town. Crazy. But what a win. What a win. Cheers all! Think about becoming a member at any time to get more involved with our next trips!
Just wondering for those who were in Chicago the Blue Jay fans must have easily outnumbered the TFC fans in Chicago, I'm sure there must have been a lot of Blue Jay fans that traveled to Chicago that were probably not aware that TFC was playing a game in Chicago, and must have been surprised to see other Toronto residents in Chicago not to see the Blue Jays but TFC.
