My wife and I are thinking about trying to go early and get signatures when players enter the stadium. Does anyone know if this is still something that is possible? Where would we need to go and what time should we try to be at the stadium?

The players' parking lot for NYCFC is the 164th st. garage and they enter through the Yankee Stadium office entrance at Gate 2. They do sign there. Believe players arrive between 2.5-1.5 hours before kickoff.

Thank you very much!

Haven't done that since season 1. It's a nice thing to do, especially pre-game when there isn't a crowd like after the match. Granted, I don't know how much of a crowd there is these days. There used to be 5 deep all along the fence in the days of Villa/Pirlo/Lampard.

Kickoff at 12 PM ET (for Kid's Day)

I recall we've had games kickoff around that time in earlier seasons...

There's a Yankee game Tuesday night. This was common in 2015 to 2017 or 2018. Then they figured out ways to schedule around it. But any time we have a home Saturday day game there is a baseball game in that stadium Tuesday night. The 72 hour rule does not allow for us to play Saturday night. It's just more bad consequences of the Columbus game being moved.
I blame K-Pop.

I have two tickets in 224 available for this (earlier) game as I'll be out of the city. Same for the (moved) match against Columbus. Alas.

 

[LionNYC]

Charlotte come in on a nine game MLS win streak...tied for longest in the post-shootout era.

They will not play midweek, while we will against Columbus.

But it's Kids Day. THINK OF THE CHILDREN

Brunch Stella time

Probably a question for LionNYC.

We cashed in all our trade ins for the year to upgrade to Legends for this one. With a noon kickoff do the usual rules apply? Line up ahead of 90 minutes pregame to get in?

Also, do you know what the spread is for a noon kickoff? Is it the same as usual or do they go more brunch food?

Thanks!

Yes, gates will open at 10:30 am. I believe there was more "breakfast" foods the last time we had such an early kickoff, but I can't remember it was before the pandemic. They should release details the evening or this morning. I know season ticket holders get the information, they aren't great at forwarding it to people that upgraded. But I can message you the menu if I get it in time.
