June 28, 200619 yr Any Fire fans in here? If so, you might enjoy some of the pics I took at the first game in the new stadium on Sunday night... http://unknowncolumn.blogspot.com/2006/06/fun-with-fire.html
June 28, 200619 yr Nice stadium. I wish i liked soccer, i would go to the games. But i just dont get soccer.
June 29, 200619 yr I work security for Bridgeview events. I've been there every game thus far. If you look hard enough you can actually see me in one of those pictures -- Number 15 posted on your blog. It's the one in which one of the Fire members are ready to kick of ball from the corner. Not very clear, but it's obviously me. I'm on the left wearing a red hat. Hell, for several of the pictures taken took you probably walked right past me. Edited June 29, 200619 yr by Flash Tizzle

June 29, 200619 yr I like the potential set-up for concerts... hopefully this place will eventually drown the s***ty Tweeter Center. The worst ampitheatre in the WORLD.
June 30, 200619 yr Does anyone know if this is where the new major league lacrosse team will play? I would bet so.

I do not believe that the Chicago Machine will be playing there. It's a soccer-specific stadium that can also be used as a concert venue. Wiki says Toyota Park is only home to the Chicago Fire and it's developmental team, the Chicago Fire Premier. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Park_%28Bridgeview%29

July 1, 200619 yr This place does not look nearly as nice as Columbus Crews' field. That stadium is awesome, and a very good place to catch a concert. How far away is this place from Downtown? Is public transportation possible? Also how do you go about buying SINGLE game tickets??

Also how do you go about buying SINGLE game tickets?? ticketmaster 1-888-MLS-FIRE or Toyota Park box office It's located in Bridgeview, a southwest suburb about 30-40 minutes from downtown. Public transportation is kinda sketchy from the city, because Pace bus service blows ass. Pace hardly runs at all after 7pm on weekends. Edited July 1, 200619 yr by The Critic
