    Depends on your definition of "OK". His heart apparently stopped, but they were able to restart it. So while he is alive, I would imagine he's got some serious hospital time/rehab in his future and might not return to 100%.

    Okay I think that the quote changed after I first read it. I recall the original saying that the tickets would be honored for the make-up game. Of course I was still under the influence of some serious narcotics (medical procedure) so I may have just not been reading that clearly. Thanks to those who have posted corrections :). Week 16 thread should be up tonight barring the unforeseen.

    While I understand the point of this thread, I do find myself a bit more concerned with this one fan than how to count the differences between the Saturday sales and the Sunday attendance.

    Sincere best wishes to him in his recovery....we all go to the match for fun and can't be expecting this to happen!

    I would imagine the expansion is for 1500 Sounders fans. Expanding the stadium for regular tickets is against the FO's MO.

    Given the streak of sellouts I hope that season ticket sales have increased enough to allow them to expand capacity a bit next year.

    I imagine they will consider it, and use the Seattle (and maybe Portland as well) game up there as a dry run of what the logistics are like.

    LOL! I've had both versions of that, bottom up and top down, 1 week apart. Fun times! I can post an excellent picture of the inside of my stomach… but, I won't. Doctor said I have a beautiful colon… I knew you wanted to know. ;)

    For the record this is not the first time that they have expanded to that capacity.

    Second one this year... But it is midweek after huge stadium game, at least a little excusable.

    The latter, and unfortunately for the former I was put on the 5 year plan. But no cancer so that is good.
