I'm already dragging my wife to her 2nd cap (first was Canada in GC). They'll be 4 in the FW__ party in the Sams Army section. Hopefully we can get Toyota Park filled up. As a Fire season ticket holder, Toyota Park is great and can be intimidating when full and rowdy.

I was thinking about heading up as the game tickets were relatively cheap, but the airline tickets prevented me from going as they definately weren't. :eek:

I'll be rooting from my couch this Wednesday. Go USA!

Moved to the Fans & Travel sub-forum (although a re-direct link will still exist from the N&A forum until the conclusion of the match).

Still tickets available Wednesday morning. Not that anything is riding on this but I just would like to point out a few things. We need a result in order to win the group outright. Also there’s national pride, civic pride if you’re from Chicagoland, the future of U.S. Soccer. I’ll close with a sequence from “Full Metal Jacket”.

COLONEL
Whose side are you on, son?

JOKER
Our side, sir.

COLONEL
Don't you love your country?

JOKER
Yes,
sir.

COLONEL
Then how about getting with the program?

Why don't you jump on the team and come
on in for the big win?

JOKER
Yes, sir!
