Its been a few years but I seem to recall a sea of pale faces at the Revolution match I attended. New England may be the place that can be successful going with the suburban market. Their new stadium might be worth a road trip this summer but I prefer the DC crowd, way more fun. The immigrant market is dedicated, I saw a Gold Cup match between Colombia and Nigeria at Rutgers the place was full of Colombians, man can that crowd party. Naturally my (also white) buddy and I donned Nigeria t-shirts, with comical results, the few Africans in attendance appreciated the support, much love was received. I prefer soccer to American football crowds any day.
