    I'm actually bringing clients in from LA to see the game. That way, I go for free.

    Yeah, I got the same email, leroy420. Definitely buying the tickets for my family to occupy an entire section. :D

    Mexico has a good record at Reliant, except for the loss against Colombia. :(

    You can get tickets through a presale starting at 10 this morning. I'm not sure if there are limited supplies or not.

    I thought about not posting it but I've already seen it posted on two other sites so I figured it would be spread around quick enough anyway.

    Game is one week from today. I bought my tickets online at stubhub last night. I'm excited about this game. I heard they have already sold 50,000 tickets as of Monday.

    Possibly have an extra ticket...pretty good seat, sec 131 row R. 'Bout $70.

    No guarantees (I'll know if it's available in a few days), but email me through the board if you're interested.

    Willingness to tailgate a plus. Mexicans need not apply. ;)

    I'm going with a group of 12 in section 651. Driving from Austin after class and driving back after the game.

    Looks like I'll be watching on tv. Too busy at work to get to Houston for a night in the middle of the week.

    Damn it.

    GO USA!

    We'll be MEXICAN-TAILGATING in the North-Eastern part of the Astrodome parking lot and probably playing some football while we eat and drink Coronas :eek:. What's your suggestion?

    The US roster has been announced. Dynamo players have been bolded.

    http://www.ussoccer.com/articles/viewArticle.jsp_5177348.html

    ROSTER BY POSITION
    GOALKEEPERS (2): Brad Guzan (Chivas USA), Tim Howard (Everton FC)
    DEFENDERS (7): Carlos Bocanegra (Fulham FC), Ramiro Corrales (SK Brann), Drew Moor (FC Dallas), Oguchi Onyewu (Standard de Liege), Michael Parkhurst (New England Revolution), Heath Pearce (Hansa Rostock), Eddie Robinson (Houston Dynamo)
    MIDFIELDERS (9): Freddy Adu (SL Benfica), Michael Bradley (SC Heerenveen), Ricardo Clark (Houston Dynamo), Bobby Convey (Reading FC), Brad Davis (Houston Dynamo), Maurice Edu (Toronto FC), Benny Feilhaber (Derby County), Stuart Holden (Houston Dynamo), Eddie Lewis (Derby County)
    FORWARDS (4): Jozy Altidore (New York Red Bulls), Clint Dempsey (Fulham FC), Landon Donovan (Los Angeles Galaxy), Pat Noonan (Aalesund FK)

    I hope Adu and Altidore get some serious minutes to see what they can do out there. The US could put a very strong offensive line up on the field for this game.

    Other than the hole at RB, that's a solid roster. Are we really going to play Drew Moor there against Mexico? Maybe Parkhurst or even Rico?

    Hmmm....there are still tickets available, I am thinking of going. Probably a stupid question, but will this game be worth going to?

    I went to the game a few years back between the two (0-0 draw with not many chances) and it was boring as hell but the atmosphere was amazing. The atmosphere alone is worth it.

    I'll be there.
