      This had multiple issues that all fed into one larger issue. First, there should've been a filter point getting off of the light rail to filter people to more appropriate gates. Gate D and Gate C were flooded, but Gate B and A were much faster moving.

      Secondly, at least in my line, there were a myriad of issues with the clear bag policy, which honestly just kind of blew my mind. Out of all the stadiums/arenas I've been to with this policy, they have it VERY clearly marked, and I swear MNUFC Tweets/FB posts at least once a week about it.

      Thirdly, hand-wanding everyone at the busiest gate was just a nightmare.

        Glad to see we're stepping up the tifo game. I'm guessing that the Dark Clouds have been talking to the right people to make sure there is a built-in pulley system at the new stadium. We need to aspire to Portland levels of tifo.

          Yep! Someone on Twitter was at a presentation about Allianz, and they confirmed tifo rigging:

              Looks like Minnesota is actually going to sign a Designated Player. Colombian Darwin Quintero from Club America. Supposedly could be wrapped up tomorrow.

                Dammit, now I kind of like the Galaxy and I'm a little upset about it.

                    A little conflicted, because it would be neat for an MLS club to win the CONCACAF CL, but Chivas vs America in the final would be an epic bloodbath.

                              1st - Darwin Quintero seems to be set to become MNUFC's first ever DP

                              2nd - LOOKS LIKE SNOW AGAIN FOR ATLANTA! (at least on Friday before the match)

                                We're supposed to get 6-8 inches up here. Don't think you're getting much down there.
