Yep...big soccer fan. The Rapids are my team, but I recently moved just north of Chicago by about 40 minutes or so in Wisconsin. I am going to try to get down there to see the Fire, but tickets and parking are out of control, just like everything in the Windy City, I am finding out.
Back in Denver, parking was free and season tickets were a steal at their new stadium. Not the most beautiful soccer, but still fun.
If you are actually in Seattle, you are lucky. The Sounders have the best supporters, I think.
