I just want one day to be able to play in front of 50k+ home support and be able to shut out non-Mexican fans out at home games.
Sadly I do not ever see us being able to play in a stadium more than 20k and keeping our advantage when we play El Tri.
Meh. Depends on where. If it's in Houston or LA or something, Mexicans will have more. But I think we could do that in KC (maybe Arrowhead). Also, Sporting Park is getting expanded. Not sure how much. Doubt it will ever hold even close to 50K. Portland or Seattle for sure (pending the temporary grass). But we won't ever have an Azteca equivalent. USA is too big of a country. We need several stadiums like Columbus, RFK, KC, Seattle and Portland (I guess), and DSGP.
Seattle has sold out multiple Mexican friendlies, and have had lack luster crowds every USMNT game they have ever gotten.
RFK Crowds aren't that great and have been out drawn by Honderus supporters.
Yeah you're right about Seattle. I guess I was talking about the future. Eventually if USMNT gets half as big as Sounders are there, they shouldn't have a problem filling CenturyLink. And I would def put RFK at the bottom of that list.
imho we should only play WCQs in KC, Denver, and Columbus.
Possibly throw in Salt Lake City.
Throw friendlies and Gold Cup matches at Portland and Seattle and see if they can prove themselves. Don't play a Gold Cup or WCQ in DC again until they have a SSS and vs a country like Canada.
Chicago needs to be banned from hosting Qualifiers or Gold Cup games because the American support is pathetic.
Play friendlies in huge stadiums where ever because in reality those are money grabs. Would it be nice to have 80k in Philly for a game vs Mexico, or Spain, or Germany? Yeah, but those don't matter.
edit: Panama in Seattle is a great test, I doubt Panama would have a large traveling group anywhere, same goes for Gold Cup in Portland vs Belize
