Wow, can't believe you were that close to Lenhart. What was he doing in the stands anyway?

I thought that was Minnie Driver, and she was a ball girl.

I'm pretty sure his family was sitting in the suite right above us. When I got to my seats I walked past the suite and saw a guy who was the spitting image of Lenhart (guesing maybe his brother) and everyone in the suite was decked out in San Jose Earthquakes gear and Lenhart jerseys.
After the game the guy who I think was his brother hopped out of the box and ran down to the field and spent about 5 minutes talking to Lenhart before Lenhart left the field.

So you must have seen the ball go right under Saunder's arm!

It was on the other side. That goal happened right in front of that grassy berm

Yup I was on the opposite side but I actually got the video on goal. I could try to post it if there's any interest.

Post it!

Here you go, it's a little shaky cuz I was on the opposite side of the field and had to zoom in a lot.

You were sitting a few rows above me. Section 140 Row D.

Yup 141 Row V

I would prefer to watch a game on tv than sit there. I don't have good eyesight. I can't see the other end of the pitch very well and when balls are played across the field you can't judge the distance between the ball and the opposition.

I see what your saying but the atmosphere was the really enjoyable and it's part of the game day experience. I do wish the HDC had a bigger jumbotron though.

You can watch off the scoreboard. If you're in supporters it usually standing room anyway and the atmosphere is absolutely insane.
Give it a try some time! Beer is a must.

The video board at the HDC is tiny. You can barely make it out from that end.

That's a shame.

I see what you're saying. One time I sat right behind the goal for a Dynamo game at Robertson and it was really hard to see the play on the other side of the field. That said everyother place in the stands I usually don't mind.

Awesome atmosphere there tonight even if I had my heartbroken. In any case, it was my gf's first soccer game, so im glad the environment was rocking.
Too bad LA didn't get a goal. :(
Oh man I know. I felt like we played the better game too. SJ just had that late game magic and luck or no luck, now we need to bust ass on Wednesday.
Still bitter though. Fuck Sam Jose haha.
