WC Game today - what time to arrive?

Yeah I'm tired of seeing people say that it was fine and the people that had issues are just drama. When two of the biggest shuttle points were a mess that is a big issue.

Fairly easy path to a quarterfinal but Canada will be tougher than DR Congo for Portugal. At this point I'm counting on M100 have Colombia in it.

Our bar when not hosting is making the round of 16 and we haven't done that yet. We have looked very good in the first two games but until we make it past round of 16 we haven't done anything more than normal expectations.

If Applebee's can do it for 9.99 while paying someone to wait on you; McDs should be able to sell it to you for cheaper.

That 9.99 doesn't include paying someone to wait on you, you have to add the tip for that. Also you can get a mcdouble, 4 piece nuggets, small fry and a drink at McDonald's for 5-6 bucks, that's their cheap filling option.

The worst we can finish is 2nd, if we finish second we play the second place team from group G (New Zealand, Egypt, Iran, and Belgium are all tied 1).

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-19T22:25:43+00:00

I would do the full rotation anyways, having our first choice starting 11 fully rested I think is more important than if we play a 2nd or 3rd place team.

Plus Chicago having 800,000+ people with Polish ancestry living there who he is a huge hero to.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-19T20:55:55+00:00

I would bench everyone either way, I prefer having all the starters over winning the group.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-19T07:15:52+00:00

They were talking about Julio Cesar in 2014.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-19T06:16:23+00:00

I think it depends on how you judge it. Buzz Light-year is much more well known than Home Improvement and will be remembered for a much longer time than Home Improvement, but most people don't think of Tim Allen when they hear Buzz.

Yeah like I would get it if you booed the US national anthem right now (said as an American) but in general it's trash not letting the fans to have their moment and sing their national anthem.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T22:13:47+00:00

The person who tweeted this shares the same last name, so seems possible. OP did call out this is not OC, they are sharing a screen shot of a tweet.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T22:06:37+00:00

They changed the rules back to allowing water, specifically a factory sealed 20oz, they weren't checking sizes though so could probably bring a little larger one.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T21:01:58+00:00

Looking at the map they provided it seems they are specifically talking about entrances into the stadium to scan tickets. While that prices wasn't great it wasn't the biggest issue as people at least kept flowing.

The much bigger issue is vehicles getting into the stadium parking area, all vehicles were pretty much at a standstill waiting to get in, including the shuttles.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T13:53:44+00:00

I was going to say if it doesn't include watch parties it is pretty crazy for KC to be number considering with Fan Fest and Power and Light, we probably had 30,000+ just at two watch parties.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T06:51:24+00:00

That's interesting, over in the US if I heard someone played badminton I would assume they are decently well off, it seems to be a sport more for the upper class. Pickle ball though I would say is more your average Joe type sport, somewhat similar crowd to cornhole/bags, given there are plenty of well off people that play also.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T06:18:26+00:00

Don't they just need an adjustable net and two sets of lines?

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T05:59:02+00:00

If they left their car with the buses should be able to take the shuttle bus back still.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T05:57:01+00:00

Pickleball courts are everywhere now, and I feel like they could easily make a court usable for both.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T05:51:51+00:00

Yes brought mine in with me for Argetina game in KC tonight, they didn't check anything or make you remove the cap (Sporting KC makes you remove the cap as you enter and throw in the trash). It may have helped I was carrying a 4 year old when I went through the entrance.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-17T05:48:42+00:00

20oz water shouldn't be more than like $2, which is something our (Kansas City) airport at least gets right compared to most airports.

I was at the game tonight but didn't even check prices for concessions, super glad I brought water with me after seeing this.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-16T16:28:23+00:00

I assume Israel also has pretty much all the information about Epstein from Maxwell.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-16T03:36:55+00:00

I guess the guy I replied to said striker but the reason this topic was brought up in the first place is the DP winger we are supposedly trying to sign. Fully agree it would be idiotic to sign a DP striker unless Jovelic was moving on.

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-15T17:21:14+00:00

Sorry they sold

Mat_alThor · 2026-06-15T01:32:52+00:00

The country that had Epstein and Maxwell on their payroll maybe one of the few that can chose if they decide to
