For all you Ohioans (Shaun Mason, Timpegoose Keller +Danielle Danthraxxx), I'm going out there with two friends of the sept 10 kickoff us v Mexico match I need help figuring out where to stay and where drunk bitches drink at. Combine those two i With a rather cheap cab ride to and from the stadium (where I expect on of y'all from the forums to be tailgating), I need a perfect spot to get a hotel. Please tag anyone's forgot..
There's a hotel within walking distance of the stadium. It's about a 15 minute walk. http://www.comfortsuites.com/hotel-columbus-ohio-OH242?source=gglocaloz https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&...adium&ei=FaSVUe7pFcnEyQGU94HICA&ved=0CI4CELYD
If its night life you're after - I suggested you stay here and cab it to Crew stadium Hampton Inn 501 North High Street Columbus, OH 43215 (614) 559-2000
I will probably be in Chicago the following weekend. If I can find rail transportation or affordable flights, I may first go to the game and then Chicago.
Cheaper to fly to Chicago generally than Columbus. Bigger airport. I will let the city know you're coming that weekend so we can shutter the doors and windows.
Me and my two buddy's from work are gonna be staying at the Marriott Courtyard by the Airport. Got the room booked for free and they have a shuttle to and from the airport so were just gonna grab a taxi to the game. In regards to night life you may wanna ask CxMacx10 and rschwep since they both live in Columbus and attend Ohio State.
Update: got an email from the American Outlaws who indicated tickets for the Mexico game will be going on sale soon. They are going to limit AO members to 4 tix a piece. If your not a member, might be worth the $24 fee to secure your tickets for this game.
Caught that too. I wish they had a better definition than "soon", I planned on taking a half day at work so I could order tickets lol.
I'm tempted to join and buy tickets since I'm only 2 hours away. However not the biggest US fan, seeing as they eliminated Guatemala last round (I was in KC for that one!)
Yep, also got mine. So pumped for September! I don't think I've ever seen so much anticipation amongst Americans for a game that wasnt in the World Cup.
Well technically we have to wait till AO tells us our tickets are confirmed after submitting our orders to US Soccer...but I like my chances seeing I got my order in within the first 40 minutes they were on sale.
Lol yeah fair point. I might cry if theyre sold out before I get mine. I got mine right around that same time frame.
Did you get an e-mail about anything? I didn't, but have heard through other outlets somewhat of what's going on.
I know @UcanHateMeNow got tix for sure. Is there a large contingent from TSO who will be there? I got my tickets as well.
I will be there with AO as well. I think there are a few others, @electrickeeper being one of them. He's also a little more in touch with things around Crew Stadium, but it sounds like there is going to be a large tailgate blocking off one of the streets near the stadium, instead of in the parking lot. I think USSoccer is going to do most of the stuff in the parking lot, but I'm not sure what kind of tailgate they're looking to put on.
