AUSTIN FC MATCH DAY

Verde smoke, a sold-out stadium, and 20,000 people singing at the same time — pro soccer in Austin hits different in person. Our kids go to the match together, seats in the thick of it, close enough to hear the ball come off the boot. Transportation and chaperones are organized start to finish, so parents drop off and pick up at one place and one time. No gear, no experience, nothing to bring but a voice you don't mind losing.
