Post-match: Hell Comes to Cowtown - Crew v Cincinnati - Match 14 - 5/17/25 7:00 PM

Yeah, but will you be at Betty’s? I’m supposed to get you drunk and “borrow” your phone

 

You (or someone) didn't move all the umpteen pages of Swenson's talk from the STC thread.

 

Does Swenson's have a mascot? They could be the match igniter. More people probably would recognize them instead of 95% of the previous igniters or anyone suggested so far.

 

I had the thought Jane Grote could be the match ignitor, but something about a corporate sponsor doing it feels a little... corporate?

"For just the low, low cost of $15,000,000, you can get the following Corporate Partnership Package which includes your company's logo on the boards above the lower level, logos throughout the stadium, two mentions during the radio broadcasts and a chance to be the coveted Match Ignitor."

For a while, OSU was selling things like the ability to walk from Skull Session with the team, early entrance into Ohio Stadium, a chance to be on the field for pregame warmups...

Giving that kind of stuff to people with money seems a little...OSU-ish. Sell premium seats to people with big money? Sure. Go right ahead. Having the Lowendick Match Ignitor or Jackhammer Powered By Kokosing? I've seen worse.

Selling random experiences? Where does it stop? Will the postgame parade on the pitch require a $5 donation to On Our Sleeves? An extra $5 per ticket to get inside the stadium 30 minutes early?

 

Yellow/black/yellow for Crew players.
All red for Crew GKs.

Refs in blue/black/blue

 

Posted in the ticket thread as well.

Last minute, my allergies are killing me, seeing if I can sell my tix. Section 121, row 9, seats 3-4. Basically right at the top of the penalty box on the west side by the Nordecke. Paid $169 each for two, will take $150ish OBO each for the pair.

 

Sold. Sucks I can't go. Goddamn seasonal allergies get me every year.

 

Nazi

 

Kudos to anyone involved with Seventh Son Brewery and/or the Nordecke tailgate.

The beer was great there, as was the overall vibe.

 

Aliyu time. Cole Grossman scouted and discovered him for Houston

 

The speakers are the loudest ive ever heard them

 

Pretty resounding statement from Nancy about JRR and AZ.

 

You are just getting old

 

Crew win 2-1

 

I think it looks like he wants more speed and JRR & AZ will both likely play

 

Hagglund is still starting for them?!

Also for those watching at home, kickoff is 7:25.

 

Because of FS1 simulcast.

Nationwide Arena does the same when ESPN or TNT is showing a Jackets game.

 

Aidan Morris personal appearance in the on-field pre-game.

Crew Legend.

 

That smell of feces you just detected in the north side of the stadium?

Josh Glessing just walked by the giant tifo.

 

Should be 7 legends on the Tifo and a open book for 7 years of dominance
