Utah had the biggest youth soccer program participation in the Nation a while back .... don't know what it is now but there should bee plenty of soccer fans to support this in Utah I think. Problem is if they quit at 10 years old and get convinced by the uneducated media they will go to the game and not understand it and think it is even slower than baseball and have no idea how many intense moments there were, and continue to make stupid jokes which only make them look dumber than they already are.
Great opportunity but I'm guessing the tickets are going to be about 5x more than what I would pay

Re: OT: World cup qualifiers in Utah!!!
I was reading that the stadium has built-in heating system for this type of games in early February as was demanded by Dave Checketts. When I read that from Bill Riley, I was stunned by how freaking innovative the stadium is. EnergySolutions can't keep up just by solely adding the new lights and the new sound system.

ESA was pretty far ahead of its time and did have a lot of foresight for things to be added later that other stadiums did not.
This is still a rumor and hasn't been confirmed by USSF.

It hasn't been decided. ESPN Deportes was a little premature.
