The 2008 Vancouver Whitecaps season was the club’s 23rd year of existence (or 33rd if counting the NASL Whitecaps) as well as their 16th as a Division 2 club in the franchise model of US-based soccer leagues. With games against well supported MLS side Toronto FC in the Voyageurs Cup and local rival Seattle Sounders selling 22000 season tickets for MLS in 2009 the Vancouver Whitecaps were marketed as one of the leading markets for a 2011 MLS expansion side.
