Thanks Ohio! Other fans have posted out of town game observations and they are greatly appreciated. Wouldn't half mind seeing a game in Wilmington and then hitting the beach...

do you think serving alcohol at a sporting event is bad? i realize that it does loosen tongues, but having it there is a nice perk for fans.

its great to see fans of opposing teams in the stands. when minnesota came for an exhibition game there were some thunder fans that drove down following the team. like doc says, thats dedication. i do hope you make it out to some more kings game if only to help support soccer in Cincinnati. i don't care what team you support as long as you support the Game everywhere.

also, the free kick was good. i was on the opposite side of the field, so got a different perspective. it looked like James was out of position, too far towards the center of the goal. he almost got a hand on it, but Burke placed it very well.

Mouthy? Where? Didn't hear any expletives or see any drunken behavior.

Kings would not swear, his Mom would box his ears for him.

I did hear some expletives up on the hill, as did my oldest daughter. Not tons, but none is my preference when there are so many kids around. Did not see any drunken behavior. I just think it's a bad example to kids when the adults are screaming like maniacs at the refs and alcohol tends to fuel that fire. Granted, there were some iffy calls against Kings. I think it is so important for the adults in stands be modeling sportsmanship, as well as the players on the field. That was one of the things that bothered me most in Richmond--at times it seemed like our players argued EVERY call the ref made and it was a horrible example for the youth players there. I think it's a universal problem that we need to be very aware of. Guess the "mom" in me is speaking. . . . . . I would definitely go again if our schedule permits. Kings had some great plays and quality players. I always appreciate a well-played game even if my team isn't playing. . .
