Who (or what) is Los Toros?
Los Toros was organized in the Summer of 2007 by a small (but vocal) group of fans who got tired of feeling outnumbered in our own sections whenever teams with a dedicated following came to town.
Right now, we’re a small group. But we’re growing. We’re out there — you’ve probably seen us in your sections at games earlier this season. We’re the ones who cheer a little too loudly for a perfect Dax McCarty cross, or a crucial Pablo Richetti pass. Yes, we’re the ones who scream bloody murder when some tries to take out Toja or Cooper — and we’re also the ones who smile knowingly when Pescadito flops in the box.
You may even be one of us.
- We believe in supporting the Hoops, through both sickness and health, hamstring pulls and concussions, epic 6-5 SuperLiga games and tightly-contested 0-0 draws.
- We believe that Juan Toja, Adrian Serioux, and yes, even Carlos Ruiz have scads of that Chuck Norris-type of “fighting spirit” that made (and continues to make) North Texas great.
- We believe that Steve Morrow should be known for more than the answer to an FA Cup trivia question.
- We believe that 9 games wasn’t enough for Ricardo Clark, and that Tyrone Marshall should have faced a worse punishment than having been banished to Toronto FC.
But most importantly, we believe that the best supporters group is made up of FC Dallas fans from all walks of life: young and old, dedicated season ticket holders and people who come out because it’s a great day to beat up on David Beckham and the Galaxy.
Some of us are die-hard veterans who support Mexican and European soccer teams who want to make up new chants and songs that will change the atmosphere at Pizza Hut Park. Others of us just want to be a part of that — or to have our kids know what it’s like to be a part of that.
We’re going to be making our debut at the first FC Dallas home play-off game. Won’t you come and join us?

Juan Toja doesn’t sleep. He waits.

Juan Toja once ate an entire birthday cake before his friends could tell him there was a stripper inside.

Juan Toja doesn’t go hunting (Dynamo players), because hunting implies a possibility of failure. He goes killing.

Juan Toja is the only human being to display the Heisenberg uncertainty principle — you can never know both exactly where and how quickly he will tackle your ass to the ground.

The chief export of Juan Toja is Pain.

How many Ricardo Clark’s does it take to change a light bulb?
Doesn’t matter… he’s not going to need a light bulb until next April at the earliest.

Juan Toja can speak braille.
