Vancouver Whitecaps Attendance Update
Vancouver came into the MLS much like Toronto FC, bringing plenty of fans. They played their first season at Empire Field and now have moved to the renovated BC Place (as seen above). The Whitecaps are still a young franchise in the MLS in just their second year. Can their fans stay loyal through thick and thin to help make the Pacific northwest the hub of MLS support and attendance?

Seattle Sounders Attendance Update
Seattle has done the remarkable over the last few years. They came into the MLS selling out every game in Qwest Field with 30,000+ fans. They have moved up the available seats to 35,700 seats last year and 38,500 seats this year in the newly named CenturyLink Field. They continue to have the best atmosphere in the MLS. When more avaiable seats are opened up, Seattle has seen sell outs against international clubs and a whopping 64,140 spectators for Kasey Keller's last game. They are the golden standard in attendance for the MLS. "This is how we do it, and this is how the rest of the MLS should do it."
