Does anyone have any stats on how much beer sold during one game? Revenue etc??

This will be a good chance to see if all of those fans that look like empty seats on TV were really at the beer garden as announcers always claim, or does TFC really draw about 15K to each game.

“I mean, who’s really getting punished here? Not the stadium. Instead, it’s the folks who have to watch the game.”

Don’t know if I agree with this. They’ll definitely be losing revenue from beer sales, which I’m sure is the lion’s share of their profit, and they could (and most likely will) lose ticket sales.

@Martin: So says the guy from the UK, where you can’t take your beer past a line on the stairs.

I plan getting beered up prior to the game, which is what I do anyway.

The videos where TFC scores their first goal and the pitch is subsequently bombarded by cushions are easily on my list of all time favorites.

I laugh out loud at every viewing.
