Hey! How many of the Legion away games do you get to go to? You could arrange a meet-up for the readers of this blog! p.s. RIFC is known alternatively as "Goals Island FC', or "Draw Island FC", so be forwarned!

That's a great question, and speaks to the post I made this week about the geographic challenges in the US. This year, the only road game I'll probably make was the friendly in Chattanooga. We went to the game at Memphis last season, which is the closest USLC team to Legion. They were moved into the West this season, so the only match was in Bham. We've looked at Charleston and Louisville for road trips, as those are the next closest. And we had a minute where we looked at going up to Pittsburgh because I have a work trip up there at basically the same time. But hotel prices were unworkable. So, I love the idea, and we're looking for chances. RI is actually a pretty easy direct flight from Bham on Souhwest, as a great example (so are Tampa and Las Vegas).
