I blame past me (December 2021 me), who decided it's such a fantastic idea to buy 12 of the 17 home tickets for games of the Vancouver Whitecaps FC for two people.
For the last couple of games, I feel jaded by the time. This is my first time being so emotionally invested in a losing team. Growing up in the Philippines, I watched professional and local basketball passionately. I go to games live and am shameless enough to take pictures with players whenever I see them at events. Somehow, all the teams and players I support are more or less winning teams. I went to a university with a great basketball program, and we won a championship when I was there.
When I started working, I stopped watching sports altogether until I arrived in Canada. My brother introduced (explained the rules) me to American football and soccer. We started watching the NFL, CFL (BC Lions), and of course, the Whitecaps FC.
I am not emotionally (or financially) invested in any NFL or CFL team, but the Whitecaps FC is the only team I support. We only watched them on TSN, and we would do a game live one at most twice a season, but this year I decided to go all-in by buying a flex pass of 12 home MLS games.
I still have nine home game tickets to watch the #VWFC 🙈 I regret everything. pic.twitter.com/SnwM9PxFHC

I regret that decision. I admire fans who have been season ticket holders for years with this team. I only started watching during Carl Robinson's last season until now, and I am throwing the towel already. We'll still watch and support the team, but we'll go back to watching on TSN and maybe 2-3 games in BC Place next year.
I still have two home games to watch this year, and I will find ways to make them enjoyable.
- Seattle Sounders - I am a fan of Freddy Montero, so I can't wait to see him back in BC Place.
- Austin FC - I like the colour of their jersey. LOL
