According to cbc.ca Toronto has sold over 10,000 season tickets for their brand new 20,000 seat soccer stadium. I would say that is pretty good numbers for a brand new team. Soccernet.com reports that most teams in the MLS are selling more season tickets after the announcement of David Beckham coming to play in Major League Soccer later this year. The Galaxy alone have nearly doubled their season ticket sales, but it did not mention how many of those sales happened after the announcement of Beckham coming to LA.
Whatever the cause for the increased sales, I hope it keeps up. Maybe someday Minnesota will get a team that I can get season tickets for. Well, maybe my grandchildren will be around to see that day!
