Sons of Ben: Philadelphia Union Announcement 6

I am now at the middle of the march SoB members as they proceed from Broad Street into City Hall. We are on our way to City Hall courtyard. Chanting "Union" and singing "I'm Sticking to the Union" which the SoB's adopted for the club in the last 2 days.

Like "pied pipers", the numbers of marchers grow as unlookers join up with us. The crowd is really growing now. I had to stop filming because folks kept coming up to me asking how they could join or where do they get tickets, etc.

On May 10.09 members of the Sons of Ben gathered at McGillins Ale House, the site of their founding in 2007 before the team existed, to prepare for the official announcement of the team name Philadelphia Union.
What was formerly known as MLS Philly 2010 now has a proper name. MLS has a 16th team with great supporters. www.sonsofben.com

And they say soccer will never catch on. I'm rooting for the Union and I hope it works out. If you're this fervent before a ball has even been kicked, how will you be come matchday one?
