Can you hook me up with a phone number...:p

Actually there has been a huge debate about the Aloha Stadium and the turf. The stadium is not owned by UH, but rather the tourism board or some such entity. The NFL actually helped pay for the new turf which was just put in. It's supposed to be a lot better than the regular astro turf.


This thread is starting to drift...

I wonder if Yankee_Blue realizes that football has been around for a very long time?

Hey you should've seen the pitch they had at the Far West Regionals in the Stadium at the Complex, Beautiful! Oh nice complex btw. Well back on topic, the EPL should do a tour like they've done in Asia but play against MLS teams or at least have MLS involved.

If a match is anywhere within a one day drive from Indianapolis, I'm there. And I'm bringing YanksFC with me.

Not sure a Man U v Metros would sell out Giants Stadium.

Plus MLS has limited time to play these games and US Open Cup matches, so another element to deal with.

I would have to recommend Pittsburgh. For one thing, the north shore of town used to be called Manchester, and the South Side was called Birmingham (before a merger in the early 20th century with Pittsburgh), so we have a natural rivalry...

Okay, that's a real stretch. Actually, I'd prefer Pittsburgh because I live a one-hour drive from the stadium. Granted, the crowd (as in "two's company, three's a...") would likely consist of me, my wife, and Mutts, but still...
