    Anyone have plans of traveling to the game? I would think about flying or traveling to Columbus and splitting the cost of travel.

    I'm interested in going if we were to get a bus or something together. The only problem is I'll be back at OU by then so I won't be able to make any plans until fall

    I'm going, pending the schedule of tests and projects for some of me and my brother's classes. Probably driving to and from New Jersey in 1 day! WOO!!!

    Planning on going and possibly making a 3 or 4 day weekend out of it and seeing the city.

    Didn't think about going, but after seeing how sick the stadium looks, I'm seriously considering it.

    This is what I would be looking to do (have a 10am meeting Friday I should really be back for), so consider me interested in carpooling.

    I'll get back at ya as the date gets closer about carpooling to the game. Helps to have more than just 2 people because gas is cheaper and the drive back over night is easier with 3 drivers.

    So currently OSUBowler and I are interested in going out Thursday and coming back right after the match, any others interested in such an adventure?

    That thing's got to be a transformer. It goes from train in Boston to submarine in Rhode Island! Anyone seen what the robot looks like yet?

    I said submarine, not space shuttle. Astrotrain doesn't quite cut it.

    My brother has backed out of the trip due to school projects being due the Friday following the match. Right now it looks like just CrewBeat and I. This is going to be a fun match against what looks like an improved Red Bull team. You will only miss one day of work, and you can just go in couple hours late the next day (or just take Friday off to rest). Don't miss out!

    I'll be back from Germany at the end of April so I might be making a road trip with some friends to this one. I'd like to see the new Red Bull Arena and maybe head into the city for a day or two and visit some friends.

    I also wanted to see if I could get to a baseball game that weekend, to see either the new Yankee Stadium or Citi Field, but the Mets are playing the Yankees in the Subway Series so you can forget that.

    It'd be nice to see at least 10-20 Crew fans make the trip. I can't really commit yet, but I'm certainly looking into it. I'm trying to make at least one or two road trips this year. Going to see this match would really be great.

    We should know this week if a bus trip is going to be planned for NY. Blake and I are trying to schedule a meeting with La Turbina to confirm that this is one of the trips they would like to do.

    Clem I'm interested. I should be able to do a quick down and back. That way I can save as much money as humanly possible.

    I'm gonna be there +1 or maybe 2. I'm planning on making a weekend out of it though since I haven't been to the city in almost 10 years.

    If there's a bus, I think I'd be interested in that. If it's an up back, I assume you guys would do that, no? Otherwise, I'd be interested in occupying a seat in the LFC/Crewfan overnight convoy. I'm not exactly in a hurry to get back as I won't be working that Friday, but if that works then I'm all for that.

    That's one of the things we need to work out with La Turbina. They usually like to return right after the match. A couple of us made the trip to NY last year in a van and it was about a 10 hour drive with a couple of stops. When you have a bus full of people the stops tend to take longer.

    We originally discussed possibly leaving Columbus between 10:00PM Wednesday and 12:00AM Thursday driving through the night. That would put us into NYC early Thursday morning and give people a chance to see a little of the city. We would impose quite hours on the bus through the night and not distribute booze until the morning.

    We would look at staying the night Thursday night after the match with a departure for Columbus first thing Friday morning.

    These were all preliminary ideas
