Can Someone With Seats In Sections 127-131 Answer.....

How bad the sun was in day games? There is very little overhang, but the sun starts heading behind those seats in the afternoon. Any shade? Thanks.

I once sat in the front of 128 (right behind the legends seats) for an afternoon match and the sun was brutal. I still have a small burn on my arm from where I missed putting sunscreen because I was trying to avoid my jersey sleeve. By the end of the game I looked like I had played on the pitch. However even with those annoyances, I would consider sitting there again.

I sat about midway up 131 for the 8/1 game v. Montreal (think it was a 2pm start). It was hot as fuck and the sun was completely baking us the whole game. On the other hand, the view on that net is really good, and Pirlo even waved at us when he came over to take corners

Hot? Yes - but the seats are close, view is good, and there's plenty of beer carts a short walk away. Bathroom is also directly behind. If you go for 131 look for seats as far to the right side as possible.

I have tickets for the same section on Saturday. Granted, its a night game in late September.

Thank you. Those sections are right below where I sit now in 229, and I'm thinking of upgrading if available, esp 129-30. I checked it out last night and the view is enticing, but there's no overhang except for the last 4-5 rows.. Ah life. Everything's a trade-off.
