Tickets to the inaugural season of the Chicago Storm pro indoor soccer team went on sale today. For as little as $190, you could get a season pass for the city's newest pro team. (I just wish they called them The Sting, like the old NASL team.) Meantime, there are still six regular season games left for The Fire.
