ColorChallenge MondayRed – BMO Field
Two years ago, I went for a trip in Toronto. A specific date was marked on my travelling schedule as the soccer match between my hometown Montreal Impact FC against the local Toronto FC.
Once at my seat, and to my surprise, I found out there were two other IMFC fans at my side. This couple living in Montreal's West Island were accustomed sports travellers having witness many sporting event across Canada and the United States. I was not, It was my first time assisting live to an away game involving my team.
We spent the whole two hours talking about our team, the game, and our respective journey. We felt like three small blue smurfs among a giant sea of red. But everything went fine even if we were in our most fierce rivals' territory.
Our club suffered a 2-1 lost, but I had a really great time before, during, and after the game.
On the eve of the competition, I spent the night drinking with a TFC hardcore fan talking all things MLS, and arguing with his buddy on how my Green Bay Packers are better than his San Francisco 49ers.
Just before the football clash, a person who grew up in the province of Quebec approached me due to my IMFC shirt, presented himself, and inquired about myself and my travel.
The people I met there would turn out to be my summer 2015 Toronto stay's best memories.
The fun continued after the game. There was a fair happening around at Exhibition Place. I took advantage of it. I spent the rest of the day playing skill games and eating sweet things like I hadn't since I was a kid.
I ended up inside the Enercare Centre visiting some other interesting exhibits.
I might tell you all about it in a later post.
