Sweden – 2018 Joseph, July 3, 2018July 4, 2018 This is one legitimate Sweden fan, and they are harder to find than you think. I had suggestions from the Consulate General of Sweden, Toronto to try either the Gull & Firkin in the Beaches or Scallywags. I started at Gull & Firkin but at game time, there was only one fans assembled, I was sure to find more at Scallywags. There was at least one other fan at the bar downstairs, maybe two, but I didn’t want to loose my seat on the patio so I stayed upstairs.

It was a much fancier establishment then a lot of the other venues I’ve been to watch the games, but it was hand selected by… Read More
2018 England – 2018 July 4, 2018July 4, 2018 As Scallywags is an authentic English football headquarters, and the fact I had got some amazing photos of Colombia fans in Toronto 2014, I decided to say put for the afternoon match.
