I've seen a couple mentions of the march (I saw the NE one, but didn't see the NYCFC one for whatever reason, probably just weird timing)... perhaps it would make more sense for the march to the stadium to pass by all of the main, more crowded gates (ensuring everyone sees them) and then continue on to one of the less crowded gates? That way they don't contribute to the crowds and they get to pass by everyone, leading to maximum visibility? Just a random thought going forward
