My money is on Juneteenth double header at SF and a game at Northwestern in September

lesleyryder.bsky.social•14 days ago

I thought about northwestern being a destination, but isn’t that field’s capacity quite small? It seems like they’re trying to build in the success at Wrigley

northwestern we were thinking makes special sense with student day, especially since both TBAs were cubs home game dates. northwestern acting as an accessible city location stopgap/research??

Based on the anecdotes here from someone on the CFB side I know, it's 15k capacity but the experience seems like it would be great from a fan POV, both for supporters and families

It’s definitely a good spot for a student day celebration, and if the weather holds out, it’d make a reeeeeeeeally nice day out at the game.

Oh hey, I wrote that! And yeah, doing a pro soccer game does have some logistical challenges beyond smaller capacity (no parking lol) but the view and vibe can’t be beat. Especially if the same food trucks show up

i wrote a column at the trib about the vibes at that temp stadium. if you have an opportunity to go, go. it is freaking gorgeous on the right days. fan experience would be worth it and honestly better than wrigley.

I need to get to this stadium before the new one opens. Every single anecdote about it sounds like a winner across the board

The Fire previously announced June 14th as a ‘Chicago Celebration’ so I gotta think the official doubleheader announcement will be in the next couple weeks

lesleyryder.bsky.social•14 days ago

So help me, if it rains again….

Hey at least the crowd won’t be full of Alex Morgan Stans this time

They had a preseason game there a few years ago. The stadium was great but parking was tough.
