I cant wait for this. I was in Tampa for the Camp Cupcake friendly in February '10 and I had a blast. The weather was horrible but people still showed up. I am expecting at least 30,000 for this game.
was there for that match as well. weather was brutal but the match was a good time. always happy to go to tampa. just too bad the rays arent home that weekend!
The game is on a Saturday and given it is a much higher profile match than either of our two recent friendlies I'd expect well north of 30k. We pulled 32k for the Ecuador friendly and despite the shitty weather pulled I think 22k for the El Salvador game. It's going to be sweet. As long as it doesn't storm.
OK, I found out that AO will be located in section 123 behind goal as usual. I've got my ticket purchased & I cannot wait at all! Hope to see all of you at the game!!!
Recently moved down to Tampa from Columbus, OH and completely forgot about this game during the move. I would love to pick up anybody's supporter tickets if they can't make the game. PM me if you cannot make it. If I haven't heard of anything, I'll probably order through TM early next week. Also, what are tailgate plans? I have never been to Raymond James before for any sporting event...
