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.

Regardless, our man here was a true fans, our man here is Sweden World Cup Toronto.

The theory is that if the underdog wins, then they will be even that much more pumped. If the underdog is defeated, well, it was the last chance to photograph those fans anyway. All… Read More
