Ale House on Glenwood South is closing down Tucker St. For the Hurricanes first playoff game.
They will have the game on projection screen outside and $3 Labatt drafts.

I also ran across renderings of the new scoreboard they’re Installing over the off season. Pretty sweet, but a little busy.

A long way to go. Last night was impressive. But they dropped two Games in DC. Hopefully this was a turning point game for them in the series.

I may have to make it out to Brewgaloo. Should be a blast. I wish I lived in downtown; wouldn’t have to Uber in.

An update on MLS expansion plans: now planning to expand to 30 teams. 27 already exist or have been awarded franchises. Sacramento and St. Louis are in exclusive talk with the league to become teams 28 and 29. They will be paying a fee of $200 million. The league president said that they will “take their time” deciding on team 30. Would have to expect the franchise fee by then to approach/surpass $250 million.

Well that’s interesting. Seems like Raleigh would have a really good shot at winning a team if Malik and Kane get this stadium going.

The quote below shows the importance of the funding and financials that are needed to secure a franchise.
“No decisions on expansion markets were finalized, but Sacramento and St. Louis appear to have a leg up on the competition as they’ve been asked to make formal presentations to the MLS Expansion Committee “to address each bid’s final stadium plan, corporate commitments, the composition of the respective ownership groups, detailed economics on funding, strategic plans for fan development, commitments on player development and details on community programs,” MLS officials said in a news release.”

Thanks for the quote. Here is the coverage from NYtimes:
Timing is great for Kane/Malik to have the expansion announcement to 30 teams now bolstering their case for Penmarc!
