    After completing the draw, your order was selected and you will still receive your tickets for the match. Once we receive the electronic tickets from the Canada Soccer Association, we will transfer the tickets to your email address. The tickets in your account at are just placeholder tickets to confirm your order.

    Insider VIP

    Putting my extra here first. Then Sammers pool, then the FB page, then AO. Assuming they'll get snapped up easily

    all good. Yeah I think cutoff ended up with some winning, some not. And if you do have extras, Sammers leaders are coordinating. Had 60 tickets from original drawing for members. Currently need 50 and know of 12 tickets secured so far.

    Fortunate enough to have get tickets as well. With indoor dining being closed in Ontario, will there be tailgate or some sort of gathering planned for U.S. Soccer supporters before the game?

    I'm working on some dinner and day of game restaurants that will house us in their heated outdoor patios. (There are about 5 places that are open and are serving in their heated tents/patios. )

    Quick informal poll:

    - who's coming in Saturday night (dinner time-ish) and would want to meet up near the Sheraton in Hamilton.

    - and who is around day of the game and would want to meet at a bar near Sheraton/Hamilton. If we can reserve a spot from around 11am to 2p (ish).

    We would totally pregame somewhere. The two of us are coming in the morning of and heading straight home after the game so hoping to find a place to hang out for a few hours before kick.

    I'm in for 2 for any pre-game get together. I'll still be in Toronto the night before.

    I have some Canadian friends who warned that getting into the stadium may be slow with the vaccine checks. I don't anticipate it being too bad with only 50% attendance, but they may reduce the number of entry lines too.

    Looking forward to anything that can be put together for the pre-match Sunday.

    Speaking of vaccine checks, I assume us Americans are gonna be fine with the standard paper vaccine card?

    I know Canada has a standard format that everyone has with a QR code. I have a QR code from CVS Pharmacy but I doubt it’ll work in Canada.

    yeah I'm sure they'll be fine with our CDC cards. I plan to bring my hard copy even though I hate carrying it around. Unless I read from an official source that a digital version is acceptable.

    TBH that would be earlier than I would plan to be there since I'm coming from Toronto. It's a 3:05 PM kickoff, so depending on how far of a walk it is to the stadium I'm thinking leaving for the game at 1PM to 1:30PM? I think if something gets set up most folks would be arriving at about 11:30 or noon. Depend on when any place is willing to open up too.

    Anybody in that section repping US colours is just asking for trouble.
    Just like a Canadian shouldn't be in the middle of the Sam's Army or AO section.
    Since the stadium will be at 50% capacity, best to just move elsewhere if you can.
