    Most of the end line sections are at 700+.

    FWIW, PEPCO was out undergrounding some lines along Potomac Avenue yesterday.

    It's my least-favorite brand of bottled water.

    Have you looked at the color? What kind of water do you think it is? If it were snow, we'd all know.

    I'm stuck now deciding between West Stand Sec 123 or East Stand Sec 108 or 104.

    Do I go close to the action but skewed to one end versus higher up but closer to the midfield. I have a few more hours to figure this out.

    You also have the sun playing in that equation. When they released pricing, I felt that the seats in 108/104 were the best bargains in the stadium if you can tolerate the sun on certain days. Remember, the seats are much closer to the field at Audi Field. There was a picture/drawing on here of RFK and Audi FIeld stands overlapping. The back row of the West seats are only a few feet behind the front 4-5 rows of the center section at RFK. There was a lot of gravel and grass between the sidelines and the front row of the Barra Brava section. You can't lose either way, but I'd probably take 108/104 unless sun was an issue.

    By the way, are 124 through 130 full already? or are you choosing 123 because you like the price range?

    I’d go with 104 if I was you. West stand has benefits but 123 is almost at end line. 108 is closer to the away section.

    It's in this thread (or BBS) somewhere. I spent an hour or so looking before I selected my tickets and I could not find it. It's like finding a needle in a haystack. I think it was linked in one of the presentations the team made to the city.

    It was never a question for me, if I bought a ticket it was always going to be behind the goal. Perils of an old goalie. Hehe

    I got tickets behind the goal in LA - halfway up. 26/mo per seat for 2 seats. I love that view.

    That's a tough decision. It's hard to tell if the sun is going to be a major problem or a minor annoyance. I would probably pick 123 because I have an aversion to being in direct sunshine in the summer.

    That was a lot of pressure once I realized I left my wallet in the car!

    104, way up high along the back wall row 15. I'm happy.

    There are still seats available in both sections as of this evening. Yeah I wanted to stay on the $540 range.

    Now, many months until the first match.

    I am sitting in row 6 in 104, so keep the spitting, beer spilling and any other liquids to a minimum. How is the section filling up?

    Section 117 Row 9 Seat 4. Of course section 117 was the section La Norte was moved into when baseball desecrated RFK stadium. I'll have to find my old "Home Plate's Not Safe" La Norte t-shirt.

    It struck me that if people put as much thought in choosing a husband or wife the wedding chapel industry in Vegas would dry up and blow away. Wonder if there's a market in helping people "divorce" themselves from unwise seat selections.

    Nope, because this is a job for a lawyer and if there was a market we would be seeing the advertisements on tv for it.
