Sorry, was a typo for 6700. (Might have been off by a hundred or so, though; it was off the top of my head. Definitely a bit shy of 7K.)
It used to be 7600, then they expanded it to 10K, with a brief stop around 8K along the way that sold out when the LA Galaxy came to town.

The funny thing is, it's unique among sports in their market, but it's totally ordinary for soccer. (Seriously, we have the best fans of any sport.)
Obviously. Unless you're WSW, there are a million reasons to prefer an MLS contract to an NASL one.
Seriously. I've heard MLS players express envy over the quality of the field at WMSP.
There's no reason why they can't keep the current format if they like it, and still insist that the apertura and clausura are two halves of a...
