Villatillidie95 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Might try and go along to a game or 2, i've only ever been to the west coast of USA and am going to Vegas again in November for the F1 so i think it will be good to hit up the east coast. I have some work holiday to use up and fancy killing 2 birds with one stone so to speak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enda Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Not to be a buzzkill lads, more a friendly heads up, but go into the pre-season friendlies expecting a crap match where the players barely show up. I’ve been snared by that seeing Villa abroad a few times. Pre-season friendlies are exactly that. Plan on 3+ drinks before kick off. And go to Rasika in DC for dinner. Unreal food. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unreal food. 3+? after breakfast what are you doing for the rest of the day?* pre season is usually brilliant IMO, new grounds, new countries, new sets of fans, great memories, sometimes you'll get to see new players making debuts or youngsters to get excited about would love to go to the states for it, it would be more about meeting other villa fans than it would be about the game * all that said the nantes game in st nazaire or wherever it was probably went a bit too far Edited April 26, 2023 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day is great fun and great memories. The matches are often crap. I went to see Manchester United play Real Madrid in a 100,000 seater college football stadium in the US. Great experience and lovely day. Fecking useless match though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was that way in Minnesota when they came to play MN United. Basically played half the starters and half the backups the first half, then swapped everyone the second half. Whatever, it’s an opportunity to meet people and watch Villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olivevilla Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 So what's the best game to go to? We live in Boston and been looking at either the Philly or DC match - both relatively easy for travel for us, as being on a Sunday helps. Looking for the best atmosphere and opportunity to bring the family, so I can demonstrate why there's no other choice but to follow the Villa. Was slightly leaning towards Philly v Newcastle because it's later in the day, but DC would be really easy travel. Also very interested in any Villa meet-ups! Cheers and UTV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
