Well, it helps that the Whitecaps have the cachet of being an established MLS club. But, the same old complaint still applies. This type of demand may well exist. Just not at the $80-$100 price points the Southerns are charging. Frankly, I'm impressed the $60 seats sell as well as they do.
Anyway, looking at it right now, the 200s and 400s are gone, as is 101/102 and 108/109. That's almost 2000 tickets alone. Probably another 700 or so in 103-107. There's also a "battlefield" SRO section by the visiting supporters sections that I don't recognize. Is that new, or did I just miss it?
And, most interestingly, the Officer's Club is showing no seats available. So either that isn't available yet, or some fat cats already sold that out. Which would be a first.
It's entirely possible that they sold 3000 tickets already. Same problem as usual with those middle sections though. Hopefully once those don't sell over the next 10 days or so they start offering some package ticket deals. Also, I find it silly that they make the grass berm a call-to-buy thing.
