    So am I really to understand that this game isn't nationally televised? I'm a subscriber to ESPN+ and have access to two streaming cable packages (sling and DTV), and I still have no access to this game. Is it at least on OTA? Remind me, what's the point of following this team?

    You are outside the blackout area though.

    Ch 7 is a network station with national programming that generates revenue. Charity broadcasting to 20 people is tantamount to malpractice. Someday the team will get paid to air their games, just not in our lifetime.

    Can you use a VPN to hide your location?

    137 looks full. 136 about 3/4. At least from the TV.

    Looks like we’re taking a loss based on the funeral dirge.

    Looks like the water isn’t draining quite as quickly as it should.

    It looks like many of the sold out ticket holders are using a VPN to hide their locations there are many empty seats 25 minutes in. Asad first goal !!!!!

    I hate mobile tickets, but when I'm forced to use them I pull the web page/ticket up on my phone before I leave home. I also take a screenshot of each ticket, so they're in my photo gallery, and I'm not dependent on a data connection.

    Yup. You’d think a millennial like Clinton would know that...

    Although I heard there are tix unable to be screencapped. Kind of like ✈️ tix...

    Asad scores the first goal at Audi Field and he scored the first goal for Atlanta United.

    He knows how to start a party

    I hadn't heard that. American Airlines tells you to take a screenshot on their web page.

    Maybe I’m thinking of desktop and trying to copy & paste them.

    It's clearly not a sell out. I guess the marketing plan failed.

    I was going to say there seems to be a surprising amount of empty seats on the west side. But maybe these ticket problems are the culprit. I'd imagine that would mean some very irate customers.

    Nice goal from Asad looks better on replay he really placed it upper 90. Fisher is a mess as a defender. Club seats about 75 % full. West stands are packed. Supporter noise is tepid except for the opening kickoff.

    Looks like they left the sprinklers on a little too long.

    In my feed, the microphone isn't so tuned to the supporters. Wish I still lived in the area to make it to matches. Hopefully I'll make many trips to the new stadium.

    Remind me again why the front office thought Brillant was worth bringing to the club? He hasn't impressed me at all this season.
