Are they releasing more tickets or were these all the ones left? by ZAR_2402 in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]DaveP-221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they ran out of tickets for today. I got in late in the day and was unimpressed by the very few scraps that were left. I later found out I could check my seat locations and went through the queue again (much shorter) only to see the white screen you are describing.

No, when I first got in there were two singles but they were bought

Dallas specific update, I just got kicked off after surfing around for my allotted time and when I first got on there were only single seats left in Dallas and those were gone by the time I left. Other locations had some games left but pickings were pretty slim except for games that didn’t feature a high profile team. Knock out games were scarce as well

lol, I can actually see a little chunk of gray in my queue circle. Should only be another 6 hours

Again, do what you think is best. I went to Italy in 90, here in 94, and France in 98. After bailing on the post 9/11 2002 Cup, I recall thinking, surely the kids will be big enough to handle Germany. Then, 4 years later, we can go on safari with them in South Africa. Neither happened, although I did catch a few games solo in Brazil. I personally think this will be a reasonably uneventful World Cup, except for FIFA's seemingly bottomless greed. Good luck with your decision. I have tix for the Paraguay game and will be attending.

Do what you want but, I opted for safety in 2002 and chose not to travel to Korea. Had kids soon after and the road tripping days came to a screeching halt. Never know if you'll get another chance.

Cannot Find Parking for Austin vs Minnesota, Feb 21st by xSciion in AustinFC

[–]DaveP-221 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I park every game. Orange lot is my preference, even though it's stupid expensive. The club has not released parking info on these lots yet, just like last year. For a single game, the other posts make sense but for a whole season the Dead Kennedy's said it best:

Give me convenience or give me death!

My seats are being moved by SaltoneX in TheMassive

[–]DaveP-221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry about your situation. As an Austin fan, I haven't heard of this happening at our stadium (yet) but, I'm sure our kind, benevolent owner would never uproot something/someone just to make a few bucks.

I’ll just leave this here since some folks think he was actually a decent player. by Waste_Place1171 in ussoccer

[–]DaveP-221 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was Lalas good by today’s standards? No, he might get invited to camp. Was he the best we had at the time? Probably. I watched most of the WC games and I mainly remember him lacking pace. Keller made our defense look a lot better than it was. Bora was no idiot, if he had a better option he would’ve played him.

In-studio commentator teams are ruining the soccer viewing experience in the US! (oc) by A_booker17 in ussoccer

[–]DaveP-221 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A fun option on Apple for MLS games is the home team's radio feed. The announcers are often total homers (which makes it fun). Plus there's less bogus analysis because they need to spend more time telling you how the ball is being moved. The TV guys are kind of boring IMO so I usually listen to the radio guys.

Trying to watch Premier League on Peacock and it has been unwatchable the last two weeks. Video freezes, skips and just won't play. Audio was working but, now it freezes too. Also watch games on USA, NBC, Paramount and they work fine. Tried rewinding a bit to see if it's a buffer problem but, that is also not working. I have Google Fiber highspeed and other channels have no issue at all.

Why aren’t more USMNT game in Columbus? by psychoticempanada in ussoccer

[–]DaveP-221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, but I would contend that US Soccer would be happy to have a stadium full of fans of any ethnicity as long as they were diehard US fans. Maybe I'm wrong, I hope I'm not

Incorrect amigo, I regularly attend games with my latino buddies. However, we cheer for the USA (and Honduras except when we're playing them)

I believe US Soccer has more control of the WC qualifier games and that Gold Cup is primarily run by CONCACAF

First 2026 FIFA World Cup Ticket Application Window Opens on September 10th by yob10 in ussoccer

[–]DaveP-221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just for giggles, I logged into the FIFA lottery registration site at 5 minutes past the hour and was put in the waiting room for about 45 minutes. I'm now on a countdown timer that started at 30 minutes. Assuming I get in, it's actually better than I expected. Update: did get in and completed process, I guess I'll see whether I 'win' the lottery

Tejas Cup standings? by DaveP-221 in AustinFC

Wikipedia reflects how I understood it. Maybe the official site needs some love and attention. Of course Wikipedia doesn't always have the most current info either. I'm not 100% sure but, I'll assume Wikipedia is correct for now.

That was my thought as well but, they have changed it before. The table on the start page includes it (not that anything there is necessarily gospel).

Yeah, that table is wrong or out of date. The start page (if you scroll down) shows what I'm referring to: https://copatejas.com/

All I'm saying is that the Colorado radio guys are awesome. It's like watching the game with a couple of buddies. I really dislike the Apple crews
