PORTLAND, Ore. - The Portland Timbers have introduced season ticket information and an online "virtual venue" feature that gives fans architecturally accurate views of every seating section available at PGE Park when the team begins play in Major League Soccer (MLS) in 2011.

The virtual venue feature at www.PortlandMLS2011.com offers fans the ability to simultaneously compare 360-degree views from various seating sections and the opportunity to explore the exciting changes that will take place at PGE Park for the 2011 MLS season. Additionally, fans who have not already done so are able to place a $50 deposit toward season tickets for the 2011 season to gain priority status during the seat-selection process, which will take place over the coming weeks.
