The US-Mexico game in Columbus next month sold out in 20 minutes yesterday. Well not exactly, but it’s still pretty impressive.
Tickets went on pre-sale a week ago to local groups, Crew season ticket holders and fans who have registered at ussoccer.com. This was done in an effort to get as pro a US crowd as possible. However, I’m sure a decent number of enterprising Mexican fans will have managed to get tickets as well.
