And they're off...

The Reds win one after 30 years.
Will try to remain competitive for another year.

(It occurs to me that my other Red's team also won in 1990, but have not come back to life.)

A very rare occurrence in an otherwise forgettable year.

Anybody go to the TQL Stadium opener?

Anybody go to the TQL Stadium opener?

Yep. We sat in the upper corner and the sight line to field was amazing. I do not think there is a bad seat in the house.

Pregame was also a lot of fun between Washington Park and all of the bars around the stadium.

Now if only the team didn't suck....

Anybody go to the TQL Stadium opener?

Yep. Agree, not a bad seat in the house. Walked around the stadium, Food, Bathrooms, and Beer everywhere.

Got down there about 2 1/2 hours beforehand and the bars were packed. Lots going on and there was only 25 - 33% capacity. Place is going to be really loud once everyone is aloud to go.

Didn't think the team sucked. Not sold on the keeper. Came out on one when he shouldn't have on one and had some miscommunication with a defender on another one. Don't know if that's due to all the new faces on the team or if he just isn't the guy.

FCC is near the top in MLS spending so it's not like the owners are not trying to put out a good product, that's for sure.
