Once again we are heading down to the swamp to take on the Metro Bulls, on April 20th at 7:00pm. The buses this go-round are sponsored by the Revs themselves, so the trip is free for members!* Thanks Revs! You’ve still gotta pay for your game ticket, though. Those are $20, and you have to buy your ticket through us to go on the bus. Don’t wait. We can only guarantee two buses right now – and one of those belongs to the Rebellion. Once these buses are filled, they’re filled. Buy your ticket now and reserve your spot on the Riders bus. If you’re planning on meeting us there, and not taking the bus, standalone tickets will go on sale soon. 18 years and still the same, The Midnight Riders (that’s our name) *$15 for this bus for non-members… it's only $10 to join… hmmm I'd do the math there
I'm in the Bronx, so I have a bit of a head start in getting there. Can I get a ticket and meet you there?
This is very tempting... Looks like pick up/drop up stops are The Banshee, Gillette Stadium & Wallingford CT Park & Ride. Any info on departure times and estimated return for MA locations? Thanks!
Game tickets only now on sale: http://www.midnightriders.com/shop/index.php?route=product/category&path=61 We should be leaving Gillette around 11 I would imagine. We still have work out the timeline with the bus company.
Holy crap ... now that's impressive. Think the Revs would be willing to charter a flight to SKC for free for fans? We could probably get 100 without a problem!
If there is enough interest we will. gotta see how much it'll be first (new company this year. So hopefully no broken A/C's and crap we dealt with in the past)
What's the typical pregame for a REVS road trip to RBA? Tailgate in parking lot (is it even legal down there?) or Pub within walking distance to stadium? It looks like the NYRB Supporters groups have various local water holes established as home base. Unsure if they are receptive to visiting supporters? I'm very much looking forward to finally seeing RBA in person. Thanks! Helpful tips for newbies about RBA I saw online: Tip: Alcohol sales are shut off at the 55th minute of soccer matches. Tip: Section 124 features the widest variety of beer in the Arena. The list includes Stiegl lager (from Austria, same beer served at the Red Bulls stadium in Salzburg), Red Hook, Blue Moon, Newcastle, and Stella Artois.
Looks great. Happy to take over and support a local pub. Although I enjoy tailgating as much as the next fella I am definitely envious of having local food/drink establishments within walking distance to the stadium as an option. Route 1/Patriots Place just doesn't do it for me. Too "Box Storey" perhaps? It's just the suburban feel that lacks something I guess.
I've made the trip twice for Revs games and once for a US match. Tailgating isn't allowed at any of the lots around RB Arena though there are some very small private lots that allow it. The logistics of tailgating with a bunch of people coming from the buses really isn't that doable. The buses will most likely be dropping people off at O'Donnell's like it has the last few trips. They have surprisingly good beer selection, are New England friendly, but don't have food. There is a good Chinese food place and Peruvian place as well as like 5 pizza places. Also, I agree on your Patriots Place take. It sucks.
And because O'Donnell's doesn't serve food, you're allowed to bring in food from other places into the bar.
No joke! ON TAP: Guinness, Harp, Carlsberg, Kronenbourg 1664, Bass, Belhaven, Fullers ESB, Horgaarden, Paulaner, Anchor Steam, Climax, Saranac, See bartender for current Draught list. BOTTLES: Grolsch, Corona, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, Anchor Porter, Bass,Samuel Smith: Pure Lager ,Taddy Porter, Oatmeal Stout, Imperial Stout, Nut Brown Ale, Pale Ale, India Pale Ale, Brooklyn Lager, Pinkus Organic, Duval, Chimay, Orval Trappist, and more. Ask your bartender for a list of seasonal brews
Just curious...Anyone know seating location for away supporters groups? High up, but under cover probably? Are all seats under cover at this footie cathedral? http://www.seats3d.com/mls/new_york_red_bulls/
