The last that I heard, the 18,000 $50.00 downpayments had turned into approx 16,000 fully paid season tickets.

Comment via the blog widget if you can. We see those immediately, and may not see the ones posted here until the meeting's over.

When are you doing a recap of all that? I don't have patience to wade through an hour of live-blogging.

MLS games can get a stadium some international exposure. They have followed the league in Argentina somewhat since a few of their more famous players (Schelotto, Lopez, Gallardo) arrived on our shores. And certainly most Swedes now know Seattle has a team, and most of Mexico knows that Chicago does.
