    He's sight for sore eyes ain't he? I had to keep telling myself to photograph other players during practice, I was so fixated on the fact that he was actually running and kicking a ball at the same time.

    I was going to give you a hard time because I didn't see him in any pictures that involved a soccer ball, but then I saw one, so I guess he is back, sort of.

    Well, all I can say is that at least he didn't grow a pornstache like Scott Garlick. :D

    Anybody know what time they practice Monday? I would love to swing out there and see them for a bit.

    I have a friend who works for Channel 14, and I've used his passes before at a Hurricanes game. Although he hates soccer, I might persuade him to go out for a bit if I knew what time they were practicing. So does anyone know?

    SOME LAST MINUTE DETAILS AND REMINDERS

    WEAR RED !!!


    Gametime forecast is 68 degrees and sunny. Absolutely beautiful night in store.

    Parking lot gates will be open all day tomorrow so arrive as early as you like. We'll probably be out at the tailgate location around 3pm and fire up the grills around 4:30p

    Meet at the tailgate area (see map here) at 6:30pm and we'll all march in together as a group.

    Post-Match party at the Fox & Hound. Click here for driving directions to the pub from the Stadium.

    I'll be wearing a grey shirt with the TSF logo on front (see my avatar at right) and a red US Soccer cap at the tailgate so stop by and say hello (I'll be wearing a red Nats jersey and red US Soccer cap inside the stadium).

    My cellphone number is 919-637-1979 in case you need anything (directions, etc.)

    Full details are here:

    Does anyone know of any stores in the Raleigh area that sell US Soccer merchandise? Preferably a red sweatshirt or red longsleeve T-Shirt.

    If you go into one of their stores, please tell them you heard about it on the TriSoccerFan website! :)

    You TriSoccerFan folks are fantastic! From the basic information on your website, arial photos of the park, and discounted nearby hotel info - you guys have answered every question a visitor would have. You guys are the best.

    Will be driving down tomorrow morning from Maryland with my 8 year old son for our first ever US National game.

    Thanks again!!!!

    Excellent. Thanks for the store references Jarrett, since the jerseys are so hard to find. Will pick mine up tonight and will be sure to mention the website.

    No shit, these guys have been great, when I had to back out of a trip to the game due to ankle surgery gone bad, they coordinated for the sale of my two tickets to guys that USSF screwed over.

    So ********ing class.

    Just to make sure USSF doesn't get a bad rap (although, I'll admit their ticketing process is a bit frustrating), I was able to fix the ticketing problem for the two fellas that got screwed when they rolled into town yesterday. I sold the Lieutenant's tickets to other folks! :)

    So I got my tickets today....they're West Skybox 2. Someone who's been there wanna tell me what the hell that is?

    Also, how bad is traffic in that area? If I leave the Crabtree Valley area by 5, is that enough time? Thanks.

    This is one of the two luxury suites at SAS Soccer Park. There are two or three rows of seats outside the box and a lounge behind it that you'll have access to during the game.

    Between Crabtree and Western Blvd on the Beltline can get pretty slow around 5pm. It should be enough time to get there by match time though ;)

    Cool. Thanks. I'll try to come early for some tailgating, then.

    Anyone interested in a skybox ticket? The price is very cheap. One beer, on you. Two, if you're feeling overly generous.

    I know someone that is looking for a single ticket and I'm sure he'd buy you more than one beer. Let me know.
