HEY! AO NATIONAL GUYS!!!!

Evidently, there are HUGE problems with arbitrary rules enforcement and flag length, etc., at The Dick.

Anything can be done about this? I'd hate to wave my colors only to get thrown out 10 minutes into the game.

Well, we always here of problems at stadiums during regular games, it seems that the rules always change when a US games comes to town. So I am not to worried about anything at this point.

It is unfortunate that they have these problems. I think they just need to approach the people in the front office that do care. Like the marketing team. They obviously rely on them for perception, what is the draw without them. The management have different priorities. US soccer realizes what supporters groups are for and they usually are pretty good. I have had the same problems in KC, but it is getting better. They have good management.

HUGE problems here at DSG park.

KSE staff and Argus security are HORRENDOUS.

But you are right, they seem to "let-up" for big matches and what-not in hopes of finding more ticket $ales for future Rapids Games.

Anywhoo...working on poss. interest for Colorado Chapter.

Meanwhile have loads of peeps wanting to be in group for US v Gua in Nov.
Am looking into Bus trans. from Downtown Denver to the game on matchday.

Feel free to send pm's or e-mail me.

Is there supposed to be a good turn out of SA and AO fans at this game? I am coming from California to see it, my buddy just bought some SA tickets. Also, do SA and AO guys sit in sections next to each other.

[thethinwhiteduke]

in my experience, AO and SA guys are all in the same section(s) mixed up, mingling and supporting the US.
ill leave it to others to state more about the expected crowd but im thinking that a midweek match in a cold climate with qualification for the next stage already guaranteed, attendance wont be too impressive.

I think I'm going to this game. Never been to Colorado before.

ill probably be going too, besides it will give me a chance to show off my usa "sideline" jacket that is supposed to be good for cold weather. metroflip, if you want to discuss arrangements or meets from the NY area, let me know.

that being said, i would still tend to think that if qualification has been guaranteed, a lot of the traveling support will be saving their funds for mexico, costa rica et al in the hex.

I'll be going as well.

HendersonNYC is in for sure and JayDelight is considering it. Maybe Fina as well.

No doubt, but personally, I've only been to a couple of venues for USA WCQing games within the USA. I will be going to Azteca, BMO (if those p*ssies sack the f*** up in Canada), and possibly another venue.

If you'd like to meet up, you know where I am usually located...Sec 101 in Giants Stadium. :D

[vflkirwan]

If the US is in, I'm gonna be out. Save it for travelling within the US next year. And saving it for Mexico City and San Jose in 09!

Very good to hear Flip (Hopefully you'll change your mind Ed). I'm definitely in since I live 30 minutes away. Be great to catch up with some of the old guard for some mile high beverages.
