the first leg of WC qualifying against Mexico is 2/11/09 in Columbus... it's only a 16 hour drive.
My favorite soccer game was US-Mexico at the cotton bowl a few years ago. being in dallas I was basically rooting for the visitors, US. Donovan scored the game winner in stoppage, it was pretty awesome.

Hah, the game is just down the street (read: interstate highway) from me.
Bring your drunk coat and the temperatures will be fine. There's usually a drink minimum at soccer games anyway right?

what do you know about the ruby tuesday? apparently it's not the chain, it's more of a bar and a bunch of folk are meeting there before the game then walking over to the stadium. it's under a mile from our hotel, so that's a plus.

Spaghetti with chili. . . they call that a Cleveland steamer, right?
Ohio just LOVES messing up spaghetti 4 ways, or 5 ways or whatever.
