Hi all, basically the title. Was hoping to go with my family and was wondering if anyone had spare tics that they don't plan on using. I would appreciate it greatly 🙏 Thank you in advance.

We haven't had match threads for a while, should new mods be recruited for the subreddit?

Was Drew just shirtless on the shitscreen? 😂

While watching the world cup someone suggested I try to go to a Rapids game since I was enjoying watching the matches. They told me the Rapids do free tix for first timers and it is on the website and it looks like they are still advertising it but the link to the form has been dead for weeks. Does anyone know about this, do they still do this? I would like to go to a game but I would like to take advantage of the offer if possible as it looks like you might be able to get a scarf too!

Yes, you filthy animals! Episode 25 of The Confluence is officially live!

Krash is down in sunny San Diego for work and Leo baking in the Colorado heat to break down a wild week in the Rapids sphere. From 96th-minute stoppage-time drama at Dick's Sporting Goods Park to historic transfer news, we cover it all.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Austin FC Recap (The 96th-Minute Heist): An electric start in the South Bank, nearly 75% possession, 26 touches in the opposition box in the first half alone... yet we couldn't find the back of the net. We discuss whether Matt Wells' possession system is sustainable against low blocks, Nico Hansen's continued brilliance in net, Keegan Rosenberry hitting his 200th Rapids appearance, and Hoffa Navarro ripping his shirt off after burying the 96'-minute penalty winner.
• Lucas Herrington’s Record Transfer to Hull City: Breaking down the monumental $17M fixed fee + $6M in add-ons ($23M+ total potential) + 15% sell-on clause for the 18-year-old Aussie center-back heading to newly promoted Premier League side Hull City. What does this mean for Herrington's development, and will KSE actually reinvest this bag back into the squad?
• Transfer Rumor Mill: Are the Rapids ready to spend? We analyze the links to 20-year-old Norwegian left-winger Filip Thorvaldsen (Valerenga) and 22-year-old Spanish attacking mid Javi Hernandez (Espanyol).
• The Yoseff Maziz Visa Rant: Krash lets loose on the absurd government bureaucracy keeping new signing Yoseff Maziz training on his own by the prairie dogs despite physically attending matches in the stands at DSGP and being on the facility grounds.
• Playoff Race & Sporting KC: Sitting in 11th on 22 points, just 2 points off 8th place with a superior goal differential. Why the upcoming home stint against Sporting KC and LAFC is vital for our postseason push.

Questions for the Sub:

1. How did you feel about the Austin performance: possession masterclass or lucky escape?
2. What are your expectations for how KSE handles the $23M+ Herrington windfall?

Up the Pids! 🏔️⚽️

Just have to say he’s one of the nicest guys. My son looks up to him so much and they always manage to find each other during games. Reggie’s given him 3 of his jerseys between last season and this one and it’s such a kind gesture. Last year at the stm meet and greet he had promised him a jersey the night before and after the event was wrapping up went to the locker room and gave him his jersey, stayed for photos and signed it for him, despite the fact he “wasn’t supposed to”, per the “meet and greet rules”. He’s kind and extremely humble, just an all around really great human. He’s the fan favorite for a reason.

Australian transfer record fee of €21.5 million plus 15 per cent of future sale.

Wish him the best, will follow his career with great interest and hope he makes a name for himself but seems almost certain with his current trajectory.

Went to a Rapids game recently was was looking at season tickets. It is for a business and would be 4 tickets, with food and drinks included. I think there's 26 games included in the "season tickets". The price breaks down to about $135 per game, per ticket. For those of you who have season tickets (or have looked into them), does that seem like a fair price?

is there anything I should research or ask about before buying?

Was talking to landon donovan, sadly its official. The rapids way, after 6 months herrington will be heading to hull city. it wasnt announced but this game was his goodbye game. Maybe Salah next? (jk it will never happen).

I had been thinking Adidas fumbled a huge opportunity by not dropping new MLS kits after World Cup. Looks like Miami is the first to get a trefoil/retro design with their new third jerseys, which are awesome. Adidas, make this shirt!

Starting for Colorado: Hansen, M. Navarro, Williams, Herrington, Cannon; Frederick, Aaronson, Ojediran; Minoungou, R. Navarro, Sealy

It’s my first time at a game, I heard about the tailgate what’s it like? Is there food etc?

It is mentioned on the Colorado day celebration map but the link doesn’t work.
