215 seems a little far from the action, what do you guys think of 210 or something past the foul pole that isn't in the sun?
 
While this whole thing is Midas Mulligan's brainchild I feel like I can step in and answer. There are no plans to change the name from NYCFC Social. We just decided to use Straphangers as a place holder. The group is in essence a Social Club and it would go against the very spirit of the group to give it a "proper" name.

Sounds good. I can make a logo for the group. Old school social club style. Just let me know. Would love to help out.

209 and 210 are Family section, which may be a step below Social on the excite-o-meter. Then further down at 207 and 208 you have foul pole obstruction.
 
would sections like 014A/B be out of the price range the group is looking at? Would this section also benefit from the shade? Would being that low to the field be beneficial or a detriment?
 
I have been in 014A/014B for prior soccer matches at YS. Those sections make it very difficult to see the opposite end of the field. Unlike the supporters section or the sections right in front of the SS, 014A/014B are not raised at all so, in addition to the distance, you lack any depth perception as well of the opposite end of the field.

I agree, being field level almost feels like you are beneath the pitch. I think it's because there is a slight grade towards the edges to allow drainage and runoff.
Those seats are good for baseball but honestly you need elevation like Paul said to appreciate the movements of the players.

Gotta agree with
Paul Paul and Slick Rick Slick Rick on this one. I've sat in the front row and 4-5th row at RBA several times, and I'd much rather be back in the 15-20 range. It's far better viewing.

That's probably the height I'd say we are at at the bottom of the 200 level. That field level doesn't have much pitch to it.

I know it's a little pricier, but that view in 205 might be the best deal in the house. If you guys act like assholes, that's where I'm moving. Or if I get kicked out.
 
If you could follow up your vote with your ranking of your votes, we'll then weight the rankings to pick a winner. First ranking gets 2 points, second gets 1.

First choice: 205
Second choice: 234

That's what I thought, haven't been to a live match (outside my nieces games) LOL
 
I think 205 is DEFINITELY the move. I was initially thinking of the sections below 205, what do you guys think of that? Vantage point is probably better from up top though. Also, I know the sun hits 205 because I was looking there at the Yankee game on Sunday. We would probably have to occupy the top few rows to avoid it.
 
I'm in 213, row 2 tomorrow night. If I don't over-imbibe at the football factory party beforehand, I'll try to take some pics.

Your secret is safe.
 
what are your thoughts on 103/104? That section was originally on top of my list,since it was almost midfield and behind benches and elevated,but for some reason,the view looks weird on virtual venue
 
I put my priority as 205/105. I think those are both great options. I was also considering 103/104 but I want to avoid the sun. More than likely I'll be in 205, hoping you guys reconsider that section.
