So I was just notified that MLS only requires the hosting city to hold 200 seats for supporters of the teams in the cup. I thought it was important to get that out there, especially since a West Coast team might make it.
If LA, Houston, Chicago and RSL supporters are planning on going, your numbers might be artificially limited. I would suggest you speak with your team's FO and ...
Of course, there's a difference between "MLS requires" and "SSFC are holding back," right?
On a more positive note, there ought to be plenty of tickets available on the secondary market.

Yeah, it's just getting consolidated support isn't possible with that. It's also not necessarily good to sit opposing supporters next to each other at the most important game of the year...

Maybe they feel it would be like when you lock two people in a room until they can sort out their differances...

Seattle couldn't even handle 10 Houston fans right. They'll probably mix the 200 tickets ...
What's the stadium capacity going to be for MLS CUP?
Is it going to be 36,000 capacity or are they going to open up the whole stadium.
Does anybody know where the supporters sections are going to be.

That is the question of the day. I have heard a lot of different things myself from fully open (only if the Sounders had made it) to not even opening the upper decks at all, which I find extremely unlikely as I already have tickets in the 300 level. The most likely I heard was opening the rest of the 300 level section by section according to demand. My tickets are in the ring they ...

Don't worry, you can probably ask to be squirreled away in the upper deck next year if you so desire. Other groups may not agree though. Sorry that one guy talked mean to you. @import...

Sure it's not right on the field, but the Sounders and MLS decided to include this game in the STH package. This is something that I understand is common...
Re: MLS Cup: Limited Tickets for Supporters Quote: Originally Posted by bunge Please stop blindly defending the Seattle FO.

Quote: Originally Posted by SeaM That's interesting, because I've been checking regularly for new available seats and never saw 300 level seats open up. As of this minute, 300-level is not an option on the TicketMaster page. We purchased ours through Ticketmaster within two or three days of when they first opened sales and the best we could get at the time were in section 303 and that is what we ended up with. No idea why 300 level...

I have got to side with MLS on this issue. I'm all for Supporters Groups eventhough I'm not in one. However, it seems they are looking for preferential treatment. If the Riot Squad or the Luny Houstonians are willing to put down hard cash for a block of tickets then I'm sure MLS would sell it to them. I think MLS is in the position of wanting to sell as many tickets to the game as possible and that doesn't lend itself to...
