    The stadium was empty between LA and Dallas. Just thought I would point that out.

    Open Cup doesn't draw well anyways, including weeknights, and weeknight travel in Southern California is a nightmare, not too mention playing in a different county and pretty much attracting all O.C. fans and not many from L.A.

    3.5k fans. Most under the cameras and not being shown...

    Still, could have been better.

    LA still outdrew Columbus.... 2,134 showed up.


    Perhaps if someone promoted the match, a few more might have shown up.

    In addition, I think it would help if the clubs discounted the tickets but I believe the geniuses at USSF don't allow that (even though they would end up with more revenue).
