I just looked at Ticketmaster and there are a few singles shown at that price level (I think it said tax makes it $64, but it would still be better than being required to buy 2 of them).

That is great to hear, hopefully that option is enough to get someone who wants to go, to pull the trigger.

Yeah, looks like they reassigned some seats.  A whole section dedicated to singles might have been a good idea.  They can add more for the El Salvador game I guess.

Great to see that they've added single ticket seats. Smart idea. It looks like they allocated 15 seats in 208 as singles for tonight (12 are left) and 30 seats in 208 for Wednesday (28 are left).

There is definitely a demand for single seats. They allocated 15 in 208 and are down to 2. It looks like they've added another 35 now (21 at $57.00 and 14 at $75.50).

West side has 10 tickets left. Will sell out within the hour. Some nice progress being made on upper east side as well. Will be very close to a "sell out" come game time. Probably about 700 tickets left as at 4pm.

600 tickets left as at 5pm. Won't reach capacity but pretty close.

Toronto definitely not hosting Nov 16 vs. Mexico. CFL game now scheduled for that night
"Another organization, which previously had a hold on BMO Field for that date, agreed to relinquish it if accommodated elsewhere"
 

 

Edmonton had its Nov 13 home game switched with Regina a week earlier.

My guess is:
Edmonton Nov 12 (vs. Costa Rica)
Vancouver Nov 16 (vs. Mexico)

You will need to be double vaxxed to attend the October match in Toronto. 

Proof of PCR test will not be accepted

The way the seats were spread out, it looked like 20K plus easy.

November 12 in Edmonton is looking more real.

 

[Bison44]

Nov 12...in Edmonton??? BRRRRRRR.

[Floortom]

What kind of crowd do you think we would see in Edmonton?

Also, why wouldn’t you play the Mexico match in Edmonton  and the CR match in Vancouver (or both in Edmonton) Wouldn’t that minimize away support for each match?

Looks like we sold out the supporters section for El Salvador..  Does anybody have a spare they're looking to get rid of?

Not many tickets left from the looks of it in the upper sections!

Ticket sales look to be way ahead of where they were for the Honduras match a week before that. This will sell out. 
 I think the exposure on TV probably helped quite a bit. I’m also expecting more El Salvador support.

Big El Salvadorian community in Toronto, going to be a lot of El Salvadorians at the game will make all those Honduran fans at BMO the other night look like it was a small gathering of friends and family.

The Edmonton Sun is making the assumption that both Nov 12 (CR) and Nov 16 (Mexico) will be in Edmonton.

As good as Terry Jones' contacts are in Edmonton, he manages to get everything else in that article wrong.

Regardless, I believe him when he writes that the games are expected to be played at Commonwealth. I'm looking forward to a rousing homecoming for Phonzie.

I'd agree with this. Probably had about 10 different people reply my insta story after the Honduras match asking where to get tickets, common theme was they had no idea this was happening until Thursday... so SN looks to be paying off, too bad they couldn't have announced a deal a bit earlier

Selfishly I want all matches at BMO but I am good with hosting those 2 countries in Edmonton in November, less away support and potentially more uncomfortable for their players due to weather!

Ours too (but less so).

Do you think Phonsy had any influence over a match in Edmonton? You have have to think the story line behind that has a lot of power and selling points, media-wise or even as a team rallying point. A Davies "Homecoming" would be very cool to see
