Calgary Boomer Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 One wonders if the Whitecaps may get in on this action and stage a game at BC Place: http://www.google.com/hostednews/canadianpress/article/ALeqM5i0lRE-A7650zevKAAYv-MhwskRxg I don't think Vancouver was aware of this game until today. But it would certainly make sense for Portland and Vancouver to get in on the tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuscan Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 No date announced yet, which is interesting. Due to the Premiership's schedule, I'd assume the match would have to be sometime in either June or July. I doubt they'd do it as early as may. I hope Vancouver jumps on the wagon, because I'd fly down there without second thought to see that match. I'd be torn though, as I love the Mighty Blues, but I'd want to see the Caps win for the bragging rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jeffery S. Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Barça has announced a west coast tour for this summer, so it is a question of folks at Whitecaps or at BC Place getting their act together, nothing more. Will work on the stadium at some point affect its ability to be used for sporting events, will they have to close down partially? Will work continue during CFL season?

Inter Milan may be coming to Edmonton so why not Chelsea or Barca? Real grass for those picky Euro teams (I agree with them [8D] ), a 50,000+ seat stadium. I'd do a roadtrip to see any of those 3. Hopefully I'll get to see the Caps as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calgary Boomer Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 July 18th Qwest field. They'll bring in grass for that I'm sure. (They have in the past). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
