This was posted roughly a year ago and not all of the teams make their season ticket numbers public:

Here are some of the 2014 numbers:

#1 Seattle: 34,000
#2 Toronto: 17,000
#3 Portland: 15,300
#4 SKC: 14,000
#5 Vancouver: 13,000
#8 RSL: 10,500
LAG: 7,500
Colorado: 5,000

So if the 2015 numbers are close to last years, then we're above average! Let's get some shirts made!

Seattle, impressive

Wow. I didn't realize TFC was that popular.

Giovinco boost.

Giovinco boost.

Nah, they have had crazy season ticket numbers basically since their first season. They are MLS 2.0.

Giovinco boost.

Those are 2014 numbers.

Defoe boost. It was a big bloody deal.

Wow. I didn't realize TFC was that popular.

They are over 19k now. By the first home match on May 10th it will be >21k. Stadium capacity this year at 30,000

Defoe boost. It was a big bloody deal.

They have always been high. The DeFoe/Bradley signing wasn't a boost, it just convinced the thousands of fans who had not renewed to stick around another year. During their first couple years, they claimed to have a 10 years waiting list. The problem is that they have always sucked and they struggle to keep their fans. Without all the big signings and the excitement of the stadium enhancements, they would be in serious trouble.

Goddamnit I read 2014 and somehow blanked out on that. Let me out of this. I had a few drinks.
