I am so excited!

Come on RSL, lets get 3 points for the opener (and every game at the Rio)!

Great day! | 9:50 a.m. Oct. 9, 2008

This is the day we've all been waiting for!!! So, how many s"occer haters" that voted against the stadium do you think will be in attendance tonight and are excited? I would say more than a few.

JVC-RSL | 9:57 a.m. Oct. 9, 2008

Above all else please lets have 3 points for the colbalt and claret!

BOOM | 10:37 a.m. Oct. 9, 2008

This game is going to freakin rock tonight.

Stadium Name | 10:43 a.m. Oct. 9, 2008

I think we need to call it the Tinto. Cafe Rio is what I'll always think of first when I hear at the Rio. I can't wait to go to the Tinto!

Ive got Goose Chickles | 10:47 a.m. Oct. 9, 2008

Goose Bumps
Goose Pimples

I'm so giddy.

Is it 8:00 yet?

pregame | 1:00 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

if you think the pregame festivities are going to be impressive wait until you see what the fans have instore to christen the stadium...
THIS WILL BE A NIGHT TO REMEMBER FOLKS.
(sorry to those who couldnt get tickets, it will be on ESPN2 for all you haters to watch from your closet)

Time is here, we have to be ready tonight to show the referee to be fair and not to call wrong against our team. Kudos to Andy, sorry he wonï¿½t be shaking the nets tonight. And hope Kreis starts being more vocal during the game especially when having wrong calls and giving directions to his players.
Well, we the player # 12, need to be there chanting and supporting our RSL louder than ever! Take your noisemakers and trumpets See you tonight!! Vamos RSL! GO, GO RSL!!!!

Oil is still $90 a barrel | 1:04 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

So who's paying for this National Guard flyover? Taxpayers, I'm guessing?

Stadium nickname... | 1:22 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

The Mine Field seemss to be picking up steam...

re:great day | 1:30 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

If this is so great, why did it take until noon today to sell out the game?

Riot or Mine Field | 1:38 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

call it either the riot or the mine field... actually, who cares what you nickname it... IT IS OUR FIELD!

Re: Oil is still $90 a barrel | 2:01 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

just like the Utes games, Cougar games, parades, high school football games, etc.

re:re:great day! | 2:08 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

If this is so great try filling up a 65,000 seat stadium like we do at Lavell Edwards Stadium

The Mine Field | 2:11 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

That is an awesome name!

Rowdies fan | 2:13 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

Congratulations on your new digs Real
fan's.
Have a great time tonight.

RE:re:great day | 2:13 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

Because the left over seats are for big-whigs and cost more than the average soccer-loving-have-been-counting-down-the-days fan wants to pay. They all got their tickets months ago anyway.

Can't wait to watch Javi take control of our new home. I'm kinda of sad Andy won't be on the field and we won't be able to see Espy's trademark flip tonight. That would be the perfect way to celebrate the opening night:)!!!!

GOOOOO REEEAAAALLLL!!!!!

STEVE-O | 2:18 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

A sell out is a sell out! And I'm happy to say I'll be there. I live in Ogden and don't get off work until 6:15 so I hope I have enough time to get there and be a part of the opening ceremony. I'll be sad if I miss it.
And I vote to call it the Rio!

Re: Oil is still $90 a barrel | 2:24 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

You, personally are paying for it. They'll be by to pick up the check sometime tomorrow afternoon. That'll be $23,000.

Woo-hoo! | 3:59 p.m. Oct. 9, 2008

Ignore the haters.
It's a great day for soccer fans in Utah.
No tickets for me, but ESPN2 for sure!

Go REAL!

Make some noise for me fans at the game!
