    So: is anyone going to be joining me in the stands here in Santa Barbara???

     

    I was out running errands this morning wearing my Zips 2010 College Cup T-shirt when I a woman I walked past said "Go Zips!" I turned around and said "Yes, go Zips!" Turns out they (she was with her husband) were soccer fans in general, and knew that the Zips had beat Stanford yesterday. They'd been rooting for Stanford for the sake of the College Cup attendance; it's true that a Stanford appearance would have brought in many locals with Stanford connections, and travelers down from the Bay Area. So I hope Akron can get as many fans out here as possible!

     

    I will be there.

    Holy ****. CJOcho Cinco tweeting about Akron is awesome, even though he's a prick (putting it nicely and somewhat board friendly). 

     

    He is friend with Zips Men’s Soccer alum Steve Zakuani and has played in Steve’s charity game. I actually think he’s pretty cool these days.

    Were there people on both sides of the JAR? I see they ran a video, but it only showed the blue seats side at the end of the match. They need to hype this more.

     

    Some on the other side who had brought their own chairs and some standing. Bleachers were not available. Some also standing along the south bleachers (no bleachers available...just the upper chairbacks shown) and a few from the university in the lower bowl which was closed off. With the men's and women's basketball games today, I'm sure they needed to limit the areas that would need to be prepped.

    This was a thing of beauty! It also shows how little I know about soccer....during this whole sequence I’m like “what are they doing”. I think if more people saw this kind of soccer there would be more soccer fans.

     

    Absolutely!! This is how Caleb Porter and Jared Embick made me a soccer fan and such a huge fan of our team!!!

    THAT is the Beautiful Game.  That is vintage Zips Soccer, the way we do in Akron.  I won't lie; it brings a tear to my eye.

     

    The money pass was the right footed cut back and left footed cross from the ambidextrous Marco Micaletto.             Exquisite!

     

    ?? Me, too Buflobo.
