Beckham Still Big In America

Seattle Sounders FC and MLS have opened up 6,000 more seats just because the LA Galaxy made the Cup Final.  This is on top of the just under 36,000 that were already sold.  It looks like they have added several sections of the West 300 level to their sales target and with Ticketmaster charges these seats are 30$ each.

I can almost guaruntee that they will expand seating more after tonight's Fire v RSL match, particularly if the team with two National Team legends wins.

How big can soccer get indeed?

42,000 is the new "sellout" for Qwest Field and the MLS Cup Final.  It will be intriguing to see if a record is set for attendence in a Final without the local team participating.
