Hello Forumities!! The ReggaeBoyz in my opinion have their strongest, deepest, most experienced team ever for the 2011 Gold Cup. Being on the sidelines to watch the games our support as 12th man is very important. Countries like Mexico, El Salvador, and Honduras get great support from their fans and the ReggaeBoyz should also.
I'd like to suggest that we coordinate our activities as far as who is attending what matches at the 2011 Gold Cup. We can support the ReggaeBoyz players as a group and when they score or win the players can come celebrate with us where we are sitting. We can carry flags and banners and digital camera's to take and post pictures during and after games. Having the team know that we are behind them 100% will give them that extra incentive and something to play for. This might be the difference between squeezing through to the next round or just steamrolling teams all the way to the semi-finals or finals.
The Boyz play their first three group matches on: 1. Monday June 6th in Carson, CA at the Home Depot Center 2. Friday June 10th in Miami, FL at the FIU Stadium 3. Monday June 13th at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, NJ
If they progress the quarter-finals are on: 1. Saturday June 18th in New Meadowlands Stadium in NJ, or 2. Sunday June 19th at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C.
The Semi-Finals would be on: 1. Wednesday June 22nd at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas
The Gold Cup Finals are scheduled for: 1. Saturday June 25th at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA
Maybe we can exchange information who's going to what game and also information on where people will be sitting. We have large Jamaican populations in South Florida and the New York/New Jersey area. While there are smaller pockets of Jamaicans living in the State of California and also in Texas. We should get the word out about the Gold Cup games at the local Jamaican resturants, Grocery Stores, Clubs, Barber Shops, whatever that we all visit frequently.
The members of this forum and site that will attend games should make an effort to meet up with each other at the games although I can see issues like TruTrini attempting to stab me with a dinner fork or several others attempting to do the same to him (just kidding!). Let's all go out, round up the troops and show our support for the 2011 ReggaeBoyz Gold Cup team. This will be our best ever and we have an excellent chance of getting all the way to the semi-finals and we'll see what happens from there. THEY NEED OUR SUPPORT, we are the 12th Man (or Woman for Princess)!!

By the way Moderators I only started this 2nd Gold Cup thread so we can communicate as far as ur planned attendance and support for the Gold Cup games. The original thread is deep and everyone should continue to post to that thread for other Gold Cup updates and comments. This new thread is specifically for the attendance and support aspects of things.
As far as me (Tennisman), I'll be attending the Jamaica vs Grenada game at the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA on Monday June 6th. Don't have tickets yet but will post when I get them. I'll also be attending the game on Friday June 10th in Miami, FL. There is a group of 4 of us attending that game. We are sitting in Section 113, Row 2 for that game. We'll have Jamaican flags and we decked out in ReggaeBoyz shirts for that game. We hope to meet some of you at that game as well as the Game in Carson, CA on June 6th.

You know, I posted about the game at red bull arena and Carver or Carter, don't remember who, said don't expect too much response and he was right, anyway, my ticket for Jamaica Honduras @ red Bull arena is already bought. Maybe we can have a link reggaeboyz link up before and after the game.

A friend, who is a season ticket holder for the NY red Bull, got pre-sale discount tickets from one of the Red Bull supporters group so its in the supporters section behind the goal in section 101.
as far as im concerned this is the easiest group jamaica has gotten in 4 yrs we should easily take care of grenada and guatemala and clash with honduras n make the next round if we dont make it of our group i would b shocked no lie though honduras is gonna b our best challenge of the group stage

Ok so we have ReggaeBoyz Supporters in 3 sections of the NJ/NY game vs Honduras on Monday June 13th. Section 101, 128 and Section 222. That's where we should all shoot to sit.
We have ReggaeBoyz supporters in section 113 of the game in Miami, FL at FIU vs Guatemala on Friay June 10th.
Now we have supporters in section 131 of the game in Carson, CA at Home Depot Center vs Greneda on Monday June 6th
Th support will be great. We live together and we die together as one.

I will most likely get my ticket within the next 2 days - waiting on response from a few cronies. I just checked Concacaf site and was able to go through the process of buying without finalizing purchase.
