So a bunch of us are headed down to Kansas City tomorrow for the MLS opener against Toronto. It's a tradition Brucio started. This will be my third K.C. opener. It's always a swell trip. After a long brutal winter any chance to watch soccer in the outdoors (without monsoon conditions) is appreciated -- even if it necessitates a six-hour drive. But I noticed this tidbit at the Wiz's Hillcrest Road blog this morning and it about floored me:

If you don't have your tickets yet and are wanting to go, you better get them shortly. They're nearly gone.

Are you freakin' kidding me? They play in a stadium that barely holds 10,000 people and they haven't managed to sell out the home opener? That's just ginormously embarassing.
