Anyone been to an Impact game? Does it draw well?
I know MLS quality is not world class but curious if it is a decent take in on a warm summer night.

I have season tickets since first impact season in the MLS. I absolutely love going to impact games. Last year was a tough season but 2 years ago we had a blast.
One game I went last season there was 5 player from quebec on the starting line up, and they won that game
The quality of games improved a lot as we see more and more younger player (like Giovinco in toronto) who choose the MLS.

Doc wrote that 8 years ago. Lots has changed. Maybe not for doc personally but for the popularity of the sport in America.
MLS will surpass hockey in America within 5-6 years. It's a well managed league. Look at Atlanta that could not hold a hockey team is now thriving with their MLS team. New team in Miami next year. Quality is improving rapidly as many young players from south america, africa and mexico now prefer the MLS then B team in Europe.
Cheers,
I was there at the stadium with my son. On top of this stupidity the Impact played so poorly, depressing...

Major League Soccer is once again leading the charge in diversity (as determined by birthplace) in the North American sports landscape. From its current pool of 637 players, 72 countries are represented in MLS, the most of any soccer league in the world.
Among those 637 players, 234 (36.7 percent) have been capped by their national teams, including 36 of 53 current Designated Players. Among these, 40 have been included on a FIFA World Cup roster.
During the offseason, MLS clubs signed its youngest group of newcomers in league history. Those 96 players (not counting rookies, Homegrown signings or transfers from USL-affiliates) maintain an average age of 25.05 years old, and 50 percent had international experience. Of note, MLS clubs signed 30 players hailing from South American countries, averaging 22 years of age.
The current class of DPs is the youngest in league history, with the 53 Designated Players in The league averaging 27.32 years of age. This offseason, MLS clubs signed 13 new Designated Players to the league, with those players averaging 23.46 years of age.
Diversity of North American Sports League
Total Number of Players / Born outside US/Canada/ nations represented /Average age
MLS (2018) 637 315 (49.4%) 72 25.36

Definitely the Alouettes if the opponent is the Hamilton Tiger Cats and Johnny Manziel gets to play.
