    Yeah, we'll probably send out something this week (sorry for the delay, SEs have been swamped with regular DCU stuff, stadium rallies, fundraisers, etc). We haven't announced to our own peeps yet either so you're not missing out on anything. Now this is the usual SE sections (132-134 and some seats in the 200s, like 445 seats total), will there be an AO/SA section too?

    Are you sure about this k ? I already got my tix through ticketmaster because I haven't seen ANYTHING posted about this on the Screaming Eagles web page. I even sent Kim an email. No reply.

    Kim is me; I'm one of 2 people who update the SE website and I'm on the SE Exec Committee, so yeah I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about here :rolleyes:. All tix requests get forwarded to Nicole. As I said above, the SEs haven't posted the info yet because we've been swamped with other things but we will soon.

    Someone has raised the question will there be some sort of meet up on Tuesday, are people coming into town the night before? I can make a call and let a bar know to expect people but being a school night not sure how many locals would come (or how many are traveling the day before).

    Right now there are no arrangements for a GA SA/AO section. SA just contacted the SE tix mistress about a section so we need to see what DC United can do at this point. Obviously I'll post an update once I hear.

    Agreed on all fronts. Thanks for welcoming in a couple of Columbus fans for the night. Tailgate was outstanding, did not disappoint in any way, shape, or form. Very much looking forward to doing it again for CRC on 10/14.

    Had an awesome time at my 1st pro game! Thanks SE for the great seats. Great people all around. Definitely will be coming back. Few questions: What was the white powder people shot up every once in a while? Thought vuvuzelas and big instruments weren't allowed? Not complaining because they both added to the atmosphere. What did the guy in the white tee shirt get pulled out of the stands for?

    The DC supporters clubs can always get their drums in as most are already stored at RFK (I didn't notice any horns, God they are annoying!) Where was the white powder? (the smoke bomb?) or it could have been flour coming from La Norte. I missed guy getting hauled out, CSC staff not our usual group so they were particularly unpleasant yesterday (we normally have DC cops).

    The stuff that smelled like fireworks or gun powder. I'm guessing it wasn't allowed since the csc staff ran right towards the section when he saw it go up?

    La Norte USA had confetti, which could have been the "powder." There were smoke bombs around, too.

    There were people who brought in vuvus, plus the Bethlehem brass band (NASA astronaut, pilgrim, patriot, and Captain America on tuba), plus one bagpiper. The Hondos somehow got in a lot of air horns, which are usually a no-no.

    Great fun, and great Jamaican beef patties!
