Supporters' groups
Inebriatti
Originally branded as SG111, then SG114, Inebriatti was formed in 2013 with the intent of energizing the atmosphere for Toronto FC. The group spent their first season in the lower rows of section 111. In 2014 they relocated to section 114 at BMO Field. Their goal is to bring an intense style of support to the stands including the use of constant flag waving, singing, and smoke. The group requires strong member participation, and everyone actively involved in support. Members of Inebriatti believe human interaction is an important part of membership, and therefore they are not an internet based group. Their unofficial motto is "We are not a fan club." For the 2015 season, they started to use their nickname, the Inebriatti, as their proper name. On August 23, 2018, Toronto FC permanently terminated Inebriatti's supporter status for a fire they started at TD Place Stadium in Ottawa during their match-up with Toronto FC in the Canadian Championship earlier that year on July 18.[1] However it was later overturned and they started participating again for the 2019 season.
