The WC final will be held in Met Life stadium while the US national team will not play a game on the east coast of the country unless they get out of group stages which even that's not clear. I haven't looked that far ahead yet but that seems absolutely absurd for a country which has a well known east coast media bias in our sports. More eyes, more coverage, etc. I was hoping to catch one of our games too. Damn.

Decent enough name.

I was afraid the final would be held in the "Guy Fieri Out of Bounds Donkey Sauce Stadium".

On top of the competition's quality being diluted being by virtue of adding a further 16 teams, that would've been a step too far :lol:

Aside from the phenomenal food, not a fan.

My brother got lost in the City on a family vacation back in 1995. Thankfully, people were a lot decent back in the 90's and he was found by great cops who managed to get a hold of us.

Then there was the time, on the same trip mind you, that I managed to lose track of all my family in Disney World.

In spite of my people's storied maritime history, we can't navigate on land for sh*t :lol:

Isn’t Levi’s Stadium in the Bay Area similar? Weird that they got to host games too.

I'm not sure how bad it is to navigate to and from that stadium. I haven't heard much about it. What I've heard is that the stadium in general is a generic building/field. All I really know is that they built the damn thing nearly 2 hours away in a completely different major city while keeping the team named San Francisco 49'ers. Lol

What's the reasoning behind this?
As a South East Asian who is used to traffic jams, I dread the view of 60k people hopping to their cars at the same time

The biggest travesty is the final not being played in a storied stadium like the Azteca but one in a state that's well known for folktales about a crew of Italian American waste management executives.

Arsenal Quotes

I'm prepared to be committed to the club at least until we go into the new stadium. For me, it’s important that the club goes in there and that I make sure the team are at a very good level. After that, whether it’s me or someone else, the club will be able to compete at the highest level. But for me to run away now would not be fair.
