Admin Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 In order to make a Canada vs Mexico viewing party you must ensure the following. 1. The bar will have sound 2. You must make a Facebook event and actively promote 3. The Facebook event should link back to The Voyageurs site. 4. The event should be for both games We will be doing things for these events in coordination with the CSA based on how many confirmed people you have at the event via FB. So push the social media side and encourage people, the bar ect.. to invite people and share the event. Some bars and cities which have an ongoing event history may override events people create. So please don't create an event in Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Edmonton or Vancouver unless you know you should be making it. If you are unsure, please contact me before making the event. Post the details in this thread and we will combine them all on the front page. These events will then be promoted by the CSA. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamiltonfan Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I'd like to open up the idea of having a Toronto watch at shoeless joes or a downtown core bar. This could be an additional venue. Scallywag is a commute, parking is tough is mot great, bar is relatively small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scally's has I think the largest Green P in the city right next door and is on the Yonge line though. I really did not like having shit sound on the roof.

rob.notenboom Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I'll contact The Lobby guys in Regina and see what they think. Are there any more details I can give them about exactly how the CSA is going to be involved? It's a bit more difficult if I'm going to Vancouver and if I'm still away for the Azteca match, but I will do what I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there's like 1K Green P spots within a block of the place. The one thing I've always thought Scally's had was great parking. I wonder if they would be open to showing it on both levels? Even for the El Salvador match the lower level was filled about 30 mins before the match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 If we do Scallys it won't be like the USA game. We want the whole large part of the patio. This will be much larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuscan Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Looking for someone to act as the host and promoter for Saskatoon. I can organize everything with Sports On Tap and get that all set up but since I'll be both heading to Vancouver and then on to Mexico I won't be here for either match. Would be great to put on viewing parties for both matches to continue what was started for the yank friendly. Plz Facebook message or tweet me, check that more often than my messages here tbh.

BrennanFan Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I think its a terrible idea to splinter the Toronto group. Strength in numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaub Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Also its a Friday night and the Raptors play at 8 so the chances of getting sound at a non-soccer bar (especially for the start of the match) are pretty much zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can leave someone the keys to your place and people can still go over while your gone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe's is a better venue for watching a game. But the soccer game would start later which is a problem. We would really have to be solid on the numbers and book the venue. It is a long weekend, which tends to make Toronto a ghost town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know. Initial investigation has not been good. Several of the regulars have commitments/complications. Argh. I'll try to dig up more people and see what I can do.

shermanator Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 We've got a request in to book the usual in Calgary at Barcelona Tavern for March 25. I'll organize the rest by the end of the weekend. When's game time for the March 29 match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob.notenboom Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Cripes. The majority of the Regina hard cores are out. I'm not sure a viewing party will happen. Still working on it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnkelDal Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Not sure if you wanted us to post the Facebook event in here. But I will anyway March 25th https://www.facebook.com/events/814191962039804/ March 29th https://www.facebook.com/events/1688919241347083/ Just hoping the viewing won't turn out like the last one...
