Dan Steinberg has done a good job lately of rallying the troops for Sunday's DC United playoff game. And now the Caps have gotten into the action with DC United:
As a special offer to Washington Capitals' fans, we're pleased to offer you the opportunity to see United face the New York Red Bulls in the deciding game of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. This offer gets you tickets at a discount (group) rate for individual tickets and you receive one FREE MLS signature soccer ball with each order.
Wish I'd known about this before our buddy ordered the tickets! At a minimum we could've gotten a free soccer ball; oh well. I think this is a great idea. Both sets of fans are rabid about their sports, and those sports aren't exactly the most popular in the U.S., so there's a lot of similarities there.
Back to Dan. He mentioned this info:
I can also tell you that if things go well at RFK this weekend, there are tentative plans for some DCU players to attend the Caps game vs. Atlanta on Nov. 3. With me in tow, hopefully.
How funny would that be? Can't wait to read about that experience.
Congrats to the Caps, who finally won a game on the road. And what a game! Ovie had that awesome glass-shattering check in the third period, but suffered a puck hit on the leg in the closing seconds of the game. Sounds like he's all right, but let's hope so. You just never know, especially since they're all so mysterious about injuries over there.
Hope the great play on the road continues!
