    Yep. I think they are just selling super premium club/suite tickets right now. Call was basically to figure out where my interest was. Seems like they are doing it in phases starting with the most expensive tickets first.

    Sure. Don’t know how that relates to the percentage of ticket deposits who convert to actual tickets.

    Atlanta converted 22,000 of the 31,000 deposits they got in the first few months.

    I'd expect Austin to be quite a bit more than FC Dallas per ticket.

    Agree with this expectation on SG tickets.
  6. Anyone else going to BD Riley’s? I’ll be there with my 10 YO. Should be a scene.

    Lol. Save the Crew with all the Twitter bitching. It’s time to move on. Austin Anthem launched a New Braunfels chapter today. Growing the legend to the south.
  8. Crowd is stronger than I expected. Broadcast quality is shit. Love the chants of “WE CAN’T HEAR YOU” from the traveling San Antonio fans to the alleged Bold supporters section.
  9. I still can’t believe how Bobby alienated the soccer community and continues to do so. There are a bunch of us who would love to be part of the “sellout” crowd tonight but won’t be attending any games because of his approach.
  10. Sorry about that. Would guess 50-70 that weren’t from the team. Not sure how many of them were Seton or Hispanic Chamber people. Guessing quite a few. Not many random interested spectators. They are definitely going hard for Hispanic market. Makes sense given location. Didn’t learn too much. Speeches were uninspiring. Bobby was even more boring than usual. Announced community benefit was a portion of ticket sales going to Dell Childens, which was a bit interesting considering that Seton is kit sponsor. It’s like they are writing a check back to themselves. Crowd tried to chant at the end, but it fizzled big time. Kit does look nice.
  11. Lotta MLS talk on Austin Anthem takeover of the Throw In this morning.
  12. I’ll write something up and take pics. May surprise a couple local reporters.
  13. Judging from ticket sales, that should be plenty. Going to their kit launch at Seton on Tuesday morning out of morbid curiosity.

    What tie are you trying to do between these things? Council didn't want either of them, but they have to put this on the ballot.

    We are throwing a bigass soccer party at Rustic Tap all day on 3/9 during a four letter festival that costs a bunch of money if you say it by name.

    Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Interesting to see the strong comments from Casar, who seemed pretty quiet through the whole deal up to this point.

    DBG is also super anti-Austin. Sounds like El Matador is the group to hang with if I come up for any games next year.

    Austin Anthem hosting a food drive for Central Texas Food Bank at Haymaker in conjunction with USMNT vs Panama on Sunday. https://medium.com/austinanthem/central-texas-food-bank-drive-c0f6b7804283
  19. MS 150 finishing there again this year, but I’ve heard they are looking for new locations after this one. Epstein might have more money to fix the track if he’d stop wasting it on garbage petitions to try and stop MLS.
  20. That’s a great report. And good changes. Yet, somehow Greg Guernsey remains employed.

    Wait, I’m pretty sure that wasn’t actually 6. Good schtick. Was in a meeting with CM Flannigan today and he tried to start up a “7-4” chant. I laughed.

    Yup yup. Zanates, Grackles and Trash Birds are all acceptable. Crowd crushed it tonight. So loud. And, I'm pretty sure Alexi Lalas and I are now bros for life.

    They are hoping to start academy in 2019. I don’t see how they hire a senior team coach before 2020. Way too early to speculate.

    For the official festivities and broadcast. Doors open at 3. We are pregaming starting at 1.

    Alexi Lalas in town tonight. Wonder if something is going on tomorrow?
