I am actually wondering where the Red Stars game ends up. I get that the crowds are never that big, but it is a national tv game against San Diego and my boo Alex Morgan.

Red Stars would smartly use this as a way to get out of their contract with SeatGeek stadium now that they got ricketts money

A stadium built on weird racial assumptions that destroyed the Chicago Fire for 11 years before the red stars inexplicably signed on to play there having consistently the worst attendance in the league. That space sucks and should just be a full time travel soccer field.

I like how nothing in the description has changed for VIP and Deluxe.. Still using pictures from Douglass to show amenities. Of course the year we decided to treat ourselves to deluxe it's a shit show, lol. Fun additional detail...VIP/deluxe passes have in/out privileges, but parking passes do not |

How many people do they draw? Just put it at some local high school it's fine. They drew something short of 30k at wrigley last week IIRC and are overperforming as a team right now. Also, current face of the women’s national team (the one that isn’t an incompetent sack of shit) Alex Morgan is on the other team. It’s a very dumb move from an organization (riot fest) that just can’t stop tripping over its own dick for some reason (I know the reason). However, I also agree with rango that the team can use this to try to get outta their contract with SeatGeek Stadium, which long term would be a big win |

What's wild about this is the city was likely to approve their permit for Douglass Park again. Riot Mike just didn't want to deal with the new extra steps involved. Seems like a very bad move.

However, I also agree with rango that the team can use this to try to get outta their contract with SeatGeek Stadium, which long term would be a big win They have the worst attendance In the league by far, average almost 1/6 of the attendance of the best teams. If the ricketts want to get attendance up they can invest In the team as the demand is clearly there. If they move the game to wherever northwestern football is playing in 2024 they will outdraw northwestern football. The discourse is goofy that truly only works if you have an event where people are willing to pay $40 for Parking SeatGeek stadium is a disaster concocted by the dumbest people alive. Genuinely hilarious to see people on Twitter argue that they should’ve moved it to some random piece of concrete they found on google maps with no infrastructure it’s all very goofy. |
