+++Hey and as this press conference ended just before 10:30pm, it's true the stadium lights
began to shut off meaning that Toronto FC II were right in saying there was a curfew.
Of course because of a flight delay of their opponents last Sunday night flying in from Orlando
pushing their game back to 9:00pm. Their game suddenly ended at the 70 minute mark within
seconds of their player Jesus Batiz scoring to make it 3-0. Hey Jesus scores and the lights go out!
I expect they were caught off guard as they never thought that would happen. Only thing is they made
their fans stay around over an hour without any announcements before finally sending them home!
The team was just lucky that Grandpa didn't fall down a dark staircase unseen because the TFC grounds crew
all had gone out on the field to play kick-around rather than assist any confused fans.
