    Interesting. If this is true I am definitely going to make a serious attempt. I would love to visit Montreal.

    Montreal, NYC, or Toronto would be perfect for me. I don't think Chelsea will be coming to Chicago or Columbus for a while.

    Toronto is way closer but I will give this serious consideration if my friends will go with me. Who am I kidding, I have no friends:(

    I'd love to visit Montreal, but don't think it will happen this summer.

    Couldn't we keep the summer tour all in one thread so we can all plan?

    The Milan teams in Boston the same night as Chelsea in Dallas?

    I will totally drag myself to Montreal if it means I don't have to drag myself to the giant parking lot that is Arlington, Texas, and hit the double Milan game instead of the parking lot.

    I'll head up to Montreal for that one....and and it looks like 4 games according to the ESPN schedule which has been fairly accurate in the past. I think AC Milan is playing the Galaxy on July 19th as part of the Beckham arrangement.

    That Dallas game would be in the new stadium.
