In the Summer of 2015, I moved from Vancouver to San Jose to begin my career (not in technology). While I had to sell off the rest of my 2015 season ticket, a perk of the transition was getting to take in a match at the newly built, and beautiful, Avaya Stadium. Sure enough, I went to my first match there in Fall 2015, when the Whitecaps lost to San Jose. You might remember that match, as Manneh almost tied it up in the dying minutes of the match, with his near breakaway, but was unable to capitalize.
I have now been writing for 86 Forever for three years.
