Travel/Tickets: USA/Azerbaijan in San Francisco - 5/27/14

Anybody know what time the parking lot opens? Stadium gates open at 5:30 I think.

 

US Soccer got back to me, parking lot opens at 3pm.

 

Has everyone received their AO tickets in the mail yet? A buddy of mine still hasn't and wasn't sure if they were mailed yet.

 

Can someone post the details of the open practice the day before? Time, place etc.

 

I posted this in another thread regarding the open practice:

Monday, May 26 (times PT):

• 5-6:30 p.m.: Public Training Session at Candlestick Park: The always-popular opportunity to see the U.S. MNT will be held at Candlestick Park in San Francisco. The training is free and open to the public.

Thanks. I saw it in another thread but couldn't find it 'neath the rubble of recent meltdowns.

 

PUBLIC TRANSIT INFO

MUNI has announced there will be two express shuttle bus routes providing service to Candlestick for this game, the 86 and 87.

http://www.sfmta.com/calendar/alerts/soccer-candlestick-park-may-27-2014

The 86 will run from Bacon and San Bruno, a location about 1.5 miles NW of the stadium, while the 87 runs from the 3rd/Gilman stop on the T-Third MUNI Metro (light rail) line. The other bus routes mentioned in that link are regularly-scheduled routes that go to one of those locations.

I can't find any info on the frequency of the shuttles.

 

I have an extra sideline seat 2nd row a couple sections clockwise from Outlaws. Our 4th guest can't make it. I can email the ticket. PM me!

 

Sitting Section LE37, Row 2, Seat 1-4 for USAvAZE

 

The ticket has been taken.

SF folks, what can we bring in for tailgating? Alcohol, food, grills?

 

All good for parking lot tailgates.

 

You can also take the 29 Muni Bus as well that will let you off at near the stadium as well.

The guy I'm carpooling to game with said the following after his visit to the open practice:
"...they are probably going to be using the stupid NFL rules so you can't bring a backpack (they tried to stop me from bringing my camera bag in)"

Does anyone here know if that's the case? I would have wanted to put an extra blanket/jacket in a backpack - it's gonna be a drag if I have to carry everything in my hands...

 

And I forgot to add it runs from the Balboa Park BART station.

 

What's with a section of fans wearing all black next to AO?
