I wasn't being coy!  I just couldn't for the life of me remember the post
with the pic in it ;-)
From what I can remember, it was a post on one of the StarWars sites about
the new models at a fair, but had a soccer pic or 2, and one of them had
the dates on on a poster/sign.

Since Jeff and Tom are being so coy about it, here's some info that I
just found, based on the "MLS Cup" clue...

<http://www.mlsnet.com/content/00/mls0215lego.html>


Enfield, Conn (February 14, 2000) -- The LEGO
Company and Major League Soccer (MLS) have
teamed up to bring the LEGO®/MLS Soccer
Experience - an interactive, traveling truck show - to
LEGO fans and soccer enthusiasts nationwide.

Scheduled to kick off this June at LEGOLAND®
California, the show will travel to all 12 MLS stadiums
in the U.S. It will also make special stops at the MLS
All-Star Game in Columbus, Ohio in July, the MLS
Cup Championship in October, and in Toronto,
Canada.

While at each MLS stadium, the LEGO Company will
hold a building contest inviting children to bring their
LEGO soccer creations from home to compete for the
title of "Best LEGO Soccer Builder" in that city and a
chance to compete in the national LEGO Championship.

The rest of the article goes on to describe what the tour will consist
of, but doesn't give the exact dates.  If you click on each team's
link, eventually you will reach that team's schedule, which may or may
not list a "LEGO Day".

HTH!
