I'll be at Ace. See you then. JM

I'll try to bring one.

Pre game in Orlando Alex has set up a place for us in Orlando pre game. Looks like a neat place, and he said the people there were really friendly. We are booked in from 4pm, but can arrive earlier if we want. Ace Cafe Orlando 100 W. Livingston Street Orlando, Fl 32801 It is a 15min walk to the stadium. It is off the radar of the US supporters, which is good. Not that they are a problem, always find them very friendly.

Yes they will. There are also going to be 7 CanPL watch parties for the game as well, to be announced tomorrow.

Broken Strings is the AO bar thought isn't it? Alex is going to scout Motorworks, Brew Theory, and Community Brewhouse and make a call. We can't guarantee any numbers so we can't really do a proper booking.

Ok, are any of these designated supporters bars by the Outlaws? They have a tailgate so maybe it doesn't matter. Let's just pick one. JM

See you Thursday. Wanna scout some pre game bars?

Ok, let's find a place for Thursday and a pre game for Friday then. The best we can do it put in the event, but I am not doing ticketing for this so it is not possible for me to message everyone beyond here....

We went from like 6 people to 50+. The trouble is we don't know who they are or how to get in touch with them. So booking/reserving a place is not that simple.

Ok finally back on my computer. What have people come up with for plans? Has anything come together? Any consensus at all? I have been totally off the radar here.

50+ that we know of.

Yes Shane G has confirmed with them. It is good to go. JM

Before anyone says **** the leafs... blah blah ... you have to do the bar business math on this. Even if 50 of us show up to watch 1 Canada game a year, it is not good business to piss off the 10 guys who show up to watch 89 Leafs games a year and 50 Raptors games a year........ ect.... Those ten regulars are worth more than 1000 of us showing up to a bar. This is why it can be hard to find a bar for something that is rare and essentially has no schedule and conflicts with almost everything they regularly do.

Scallywags is a no can do. They have buggered us too many times going there, never again. There are two Toronto locations, possibly a third. There is a conflicting Leafs game, so it is not so simple to do. The Pint has a private room booked via Footy Talks. Holds 100 people Cloak & Dagger is a small pub, but we know the bar tender so we have the run of the place. No leafs collision there. Shoeless for people in the west end is also on the table, just waiting to hear back.
