Really nice gathering with friends and new friends. Meeting Ali Krieger made the event even greater.
I've been attending Gotham games for 3 years now and the critique is always about the stadium experience. THE FOOD has not improved in the last 3 years - chicken fingers, fries, pizza, sausage, hot dogs, pretzels.. I need something different! ANYTHING different!! and the latest change I noticed is that one of the men's rest rooms was turned into a women's room for the Gotham game - this makes sense since a lot of females attend Gotham games but it's also frustrating to walk into a bathroom that has 10 urinals that we can't use, and then have to wait to use one of the few stalls in there. I know it's a big budget thing but all-gender restrooms throughout the stadium would be helpful since the bathroom lines are long.
NWSL 2024 Challenge Cup (NY/NJ GFC vs SDW) was a nice event + atmosphere!
Great stadium for soccer. Easy access from the Northeast.
Parking at Red Bull arena is a nightmare. It took us an hour to get from 1 mile to the stadium, into the parking lot. We ended up missing part of the game. This venue needs more traffic support and organization.
One major issue are the gates. The gates did not open until there was less than an hour before the start of the game. Didn’t leave much time to get food and get to seats. Opening all the gates early allows people to settle in for the game instead of feeling rushed. Really detracts from the experience.
The soccer game, venue, staff, and concessions were great. It was a fun night until we tried to get an Uber home. We came from out of town so we used Uber to get around. Well the venue does not have a rideshare pick-up area. You need to walk quite a ways to a Wendys to get a ride. Would have been 5 stars if not for that.
I went to Ali Krieger's last game and it was phenomenal. Everyone was so kind and the passion for the game and support for Ali were clear. Amazing atmosphere, would love to go again.
These games are a lot of fun and good value compared to what you'd pay for other major league sports events. Plus my wife likes going - so that's a huge plus :)
Gotham matches are a blast, but we need better marketing to get more fans out to the arena. I really want to see more of an effort made by Gotham sales and marketing to improve on this next year.
