The Milwaukee Wave indoor soccer franchise may still have an uphill climb to get an owner to save the day...but now it can be said that they're getting support worldwide.
Wave Head Coach Keith Tozer pointed out to me that a soldier named Martin, stationed in Baghdad, Iraq, has pledged to buy 4 season tickets for next season. And he lives in Seymour, WI....near Green Bay, nearly a 2 hour drive from the soccer team's home field at the U.S. Cellular Arena!
Here is the e-mail from halfway across the globe:
