"The Royal Army is a supporters group that embraces anyone who supports the best team in the MLS, Real Salt Lake! We want to unite ALL the fans at Rio Tinto (more fondly known as the RioT) in whatever way they want to contribute. Whether it is cheering, chanting, throwing confetti, holding their scarf high when we score, or just being a fan proud to support RSL. We’re here to help bring everyone together no matter what walk of life you’re from, so we can grow the support for our team, and ultimately this beautiful sport." The purpose of the Royal Army is to act as an "umbrella" group for all fans as well as members of all RSL Supporters Groups. Annual membership dues are $25. That money goes to pay for the merchandise as well as banners, flags, TIFO and other items to help spread the atmosphere around the whole stadium. Some of the benefits include: Five (5) $5 off coupons for RSL team store (May be used in addition to Season Ticket Holder discount) Royal Army Scarf (Free shipping for online orders) 20% discount on future RA merchandise Local business discounts (Coming Soon) Membership cards (Coming Soon) Exclusive Royal Army events and watch parties Coordinated travel for away games Supporter online forums (Coming Soon) Patches (Coming Soon) Section recognition If you are interested in joining or following you can contact us at the following links: Royal Army https://www.facebook.com/RSLRoyalArmy https://twitter.com/#!/rslroyalarmy
Come find us under the red canopy in the supporters tailgate lot. We will have the ability to take credit cards or cash.
Any idea if the $5 coupons at the team store can be used from a distance? Say someone lives in WA and wants to call in and order something . . .

It's been interesting to read the supporter's week stuff on mlssoccer.com This article on the Timbers Army got to thinking http://www.mlssoccer.com/fans/news/article/2012/05/16/supporters-week-passion-runs-deep-timbers-army Do we have anything close to a group in charge of tifo? a capo group? or anything of that nature in any of the groups?
