Gillette Stadium Gold Cup/MLS Triple-header: Special Ticket Offer -
Discount Tickets for July 12th, 2003

Thanks to an agreement with the New England Revolution, the Midnight Riders are pleased to offer discounted tickets to the CONCACAF Gold Cup/MLS triple-header taking place at Gillette Stadium (Foxboro, MA) on Saturday, July 12, 2003. Tickets are just $20 each (not including a $1.00 handling fee per order) and will get you in to see all three scheduled games featuring:

Canada vs. Costa Rica: Gold Cup - 1st Round, 1:00 pm
Revolution vs. Metrostars: MLS Match, 4:00 pm
USA vs. El Salvador: Gold Cup - 1st Round, 6:30 pm

This is nearly a 50% savings over TicketMaster.

Please note that these particular tickets are for Category III seating only. Category III seats are designated as general admission and do not have assigned seats within their particular sections. For a seating chart (Category III sections being highlighted in blue), please refer to the Gillette Stadium seating plan available here: http://www.revolutionsoccer.net/images/stadium_info/2003_seatingmap.gif

Please be sure to read the terms and conditions at the Riders site before placing your order:
http://www.midnightriders.com/Tickets/Terms.htm

Also, this is a single admission event, so bear in mind you will not be allowed to exit and re-enter the stadium once you leave.

As per usual, American supporters groups (Sam’s Army**, USA Supporters, etc.) will be located in Section 143 at Gillette Stadium, aka “The Fort.” Your Category III ticket will be good for this section. Please note, as of this year, the Revolution have officially designated The Fort as a “Standing Section” where “Cheering” is encouraged for all MLS matches, the Riders also having been told by club staff that the policy for this section will remain in effect for all U.S. National Team matches as well. (See sign here: http://midnightriders.com/Images/Graphics/Fort_Sign.jpg)

** Please read the Sams-Army guidelines (http://www.sams-army.com/index.php?Mlist=guidelines) to see if you should be buying tickets in this location**.

As always, if planning on taking the game in from the U.S. supporters section, show your support and wear RED!

Payments for tickets must be received by Monday July 5, 2003. No orders will be processed without payment. Only checks or money orders will be accepted. Payment should be made out to 'The Midnight Riders'. No money will be collected at the game whatsoever. Tickets may me purchased by anyone, regardless of affiliation with the Midnight Riders. All sales are final. Note that this is the end of the 4th of July weekend and mail might be delayed. Be sure to send your payment in early!

I may end up doing this. Do you have a limited amount of tickets, or will all the orders be processed?

Also, you might want to make this a sticky. I posted this instead of emailing the Riders to give the thread a bump.

There is no limit to the amount of tickets. All orders received by July 5th will be processed.

All orders received WITH money by July 5th, will be processed.

Just a clarification. We had someone ask for tickets for the opener that didn't show up and didn't pay, so in the future, we will need the money no later than the deadline.

Do we fill out the form them send a check? Or do we print out the order form, fill it out and send it with a check?

Thanks! This is a great deal. I am planning on driving up from the Delaware area with my brother and possibly a third. Should be a great, long day!

So how come this is counted as two "events" on my season tickets? Grrr. Not that I'm complaining too loudly, but the Breakers/Revs DH was one "event"--same with the Gold Cup DH on 7/19.

Having never been to Shaver Stadium, is the Proshop within the Stadium? If I have to leave the Stadium to go there, will it be open after the matches are all over?

Weber King · Jun 24, 2003

The proshop is located adjacent to the stadium with access from outside of the gates. It should be open before, dureing and after the games.

jmsullivan · Jun 26, 2003

Can I bring a check to this weeks game? Or do you prefer me mailing it?

Weber King · Jun 26, 2003

I can take your check (I'm assuming I have your order form for 3 tix) at the Riders tailgate area before the game...

NikeBlues · Jun 28, 2003

I ordered my tickets and sent my check in the mail to the adress on your website about 5 days ago..Do you have a timeframe on when the tickets should arrive? Thanks

Andy_E · Jun 28, 2003

I am going to send in my order tomorrow. I have a quick question...I stand in the fort for Revs games, but this is my first time for a US game. I think this game will be my 5th cap, but anyways. What is the stadium policy on streamers? Would it be a good idea to start collecting some red, white and blue streamers for the game? I want to bring a lot, but I want to make sure that they will be allowed in.

Oh, and since there is a revs game going on too, what is the appropiate dress for the game? Wear red, obviously. But as far as my Revolution scarf? Is that ok? I know that club and country should stay seperate.

Thanks for any help...hopefully I'll see you guys on the 12th (and the 14th, and the 19th).

help

I just found out about this offer. The payment is due on Saturday. If any Midnight Riders staff read this, will I be OK if I get you my check by Monday?

If not, can somebody cover me for two tickets and I will reimburse through Paypal or by sending a check or handing you cash at the tailgate before the game? Contact me directly if you can help.

Thanks,
Rich

Got it covered...

Ignore that last post. I have found a solution.

See you at the game. GO USA!

MrSangster · Jul 8, 2003

Thanks Riders!

Got my tickets today!

gibby · Jul 9, 2003

I just got done bringing a whole box of streamers for US/Paraguay at Crew Stadium. I don't know how the security is at the Razor, but I'd say you should be able to get them in. People told me that it looked great after the national anthem. I think they're essential for any match. I know they say it's illegal to throw anything on the pitch, but they say that at all stadiums. As long as you don't do it during the run of play, you should be fine.

Make us proud!

The Magpie · Jul 9, 2003

Gibby,

As much as I think they're (streamers) visually striking, you run a real chance of getting kicked out of the stadium if you throw these or anything else onto the pitch whether it's during introductions, after a goal, etc.

I say this for your own benefit, speaking from past experience in dealing with security at Gillette Stadium: if you do it, or rather, are caught doing it, chances are security will throw you out rather than reading you the riot act and simply wagging their finger.

Just something to bear in mind.
