World Cup Qualifier
October 14
RFK Stadium
Kick off 8 pm
Tickets: The SEs, American Outlaws and Sam’s Army are out of tickets however the stadium is not sold out so you can contact Ticketmaster or look on Bigsoccer for extras if you still need a ticket. Note that the supporters sections are not general admission (security will be checking tickets) so you cannot buy elsewhere and plan to sneak in.
Tifo Prep: Tim might still need some help with tifo prep and execution on game day. If you can help, send him an email at tifo@screaming-eagles.com
US-Costa Rica Scarves: The scarf pictured above is still available along with the SE Club and Country shirts ($20 each). Contact Kevin at merchandise@screaming-eagles.com to pre-order (scarves limited and sales have been brisk).
Tailgate: Tailgate passes are $10 for ALL US Supporters (if you’re holding a 2009 SE tailgate pass you’ll need to either turn it in and pay the extra $3 or buy a new one. We have different colored passes for US games). You can use your 2009 SE ID to get free drinks. Please help us with food planning by ordering your tailgate passes in advance. Send payment via Paypal to payments@screaming-eagles.com (please put US-Costa Rica in the subject header).

5:00 pm Fabulous Buffet Opens
6:30 pm Tailgate pass sales end/grills shut off
7:00 pm Buffet closes
As time is tight we and we have a lot of out of town guests, the tailgate volunteers would REALLY appreciate it if the regulars heeded the schedule (and if you can put your chairs away when we ask that would be helpful too). We ALL would like to get inside and see kick off (at least once this year!)
If you can volunteer for the tailgate please contact Thea at thea@screaming-eagles.com (as many of the usual suspects not available we really can use extra help). We also will need sides and desserts, if you can bring something, please contact Suzanne at queenofcheese@screaming-eagles.com (items need to be delivered to the buffet area by 5:30 pm at the latest, otherwise they won’t get eaten).
Pre-Tailgate/Post Game Hang Out: If you’re taking the day off (or in no hurry after the game), Molly Malone’s will be hosting people all day.
