Thanks for posting, falvo, this is awesome. I don't remember ever seeing this clip.

In the preview image: Pele in his Pony boots, Johnny in his Obie-designed headgear, Tibor with socks at his ankles.

Throughout the clip: Spartan packed to the gills with fans crammed into every possible nook and cranny, that garish pitch motif, goalkeepers emerging from clouds of dust after a save. Absolutely classic...

 

They didn't have uniform suppliers on the east coast?

Shep Messing Oakland Coliseum-Oakland Stompers vs. San Jose Earthquakes opening opening game!

 

Ugh. Messup saved Ilija Mitic's penalty, but was judged to have moved early. Then he stopped it again.....

My shorts may have been smaller, but in style.

 

Picture is worth re-posting in larger format.

 

Your sambas indoor shoes looked beat up John! Too much playing and kicking the ball on cement?

 

GK Mike Hewitt....

 

This morning I ran into Jordan Pecher, daughter of former USMNT defender Steve Pecher who played for the Dallas Tornado the indoor St. Louis Steamers, Kansas City Comets and Los Angeles Lazers……

Nice meeting you Jordan!
