U.S.A v. Mexico: 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup Final

Went to the final at the Giants stadium, even though both the NY Jets and NY Giants play there the stadium is actually in New Jersey.

So to get there from Midtown I caught the subway -> subway -> PATH -> Giants stadium train.

Apparently this was the first time they used the new train line to Giants Stadium and it seemed like the driver was going very slow.

I didn't have a ticket so it was a bit of a gamble to go so far... and possibly not be able to get in. I walked around for a bit and there wasn't a lot of scalping action going on. Eventually I a dude with some tickets paid like $100 for a seat way up in the nose bleeds that was about 3 times the list price.



Mexico drilled the USA's "b team" 5-0.
