Where will you be watching USA vs. Spain?

ConfederationsCupLogo

The U.S. men's national team takes on Spain today in the Confederations Cup semifinals (2:25pm, ESPN) in the most anticipated U.S. match since the 2006 World Cup and fans all over the country are making plans to catch the action live.

Whether it is at a bar, at work on the computer (shhh), or in the comfort of your own home, I know many U.S. fans will find a way to see today's match as it happens, rather than waiting to watch it on TIVO later.

Now, if you can't find a way to watch the match live, you know you can follow the action here on SBI via our Matchday Commentary. This could be the day we have our first thousand comment post so please feel free to follow along here.

So, where will you be watching?

  1. Step 1: Convince my boss that this is the perfect week to take a vacation. Check!
    Step 2: Convince my wife that I am actually working late today since i am taking the next two days off work. Check!
    Step 3: Break into my buddies apartment, wake him up, drink, smoke some sticky icky and cheer on a USA win. Well two out of three ain’t bad.

    Go USA!!!!!!!!!

  2. “I don’t have tv, so I’ve gotta go to the gym and watch it on the treadmill or stationary bike’s tv screen. It’s a fairly solitary experience, but at least I get some exercise while I’m watching.”
    LOL
    Josh, you could totally go to a BAR, but a gym is way healthier!
    LOL

  3. i have my piece of paper to tape across the right hand side of my monitor so my google bar doesn’t spoil it for me (it scrolls through top stories, which the end of this game will be). i will also be locking myself out of my igoogle page.

    in other words, i’ll be working 🙂 haha

  4. Maybe I can convince my boss to do some marketing and let me sneak to the Pembroke Pines PUB. But I am DVRing it.

  6. Keller for Thornton. I am going to be at the game and that is who I want to see. By the way, I am an RSL fan, not a Seattle fan.

  9. official beer? Never had a Yuenglings. I am partial to German beer, however. Kostritzer is my favorite (dark beer). After that it is Milwaukee’s Best.

    jk.

  10. my exotic location: the basement, in my office, on 360.

    I am getting pumped for the game just reading all the cool places many of you are going to be! Be sure of this: we will either be cheering or jeering in unison, no matter our locations!

  11. Love your site Ives.

    I’ll be at Wolff’s Biergarten in Albany, NY.

    Go USA!

    Given the “heart” the US has shown in this tournament, I am feeling much more optimistic about 2010.

  13. Streaming at work, where 3 people so far have commented on my USA scarf, wanting to know why I had a towel draped over my monitor.

  14. That link didn’t work: check out Riverside Soccer Lounge group on Facebook- a very informal, alchohol-free place to watch soccer.

  15. On my DVR tonight!

    I’m trying to show remarkable restraint and not check the score during the day. I tend not to watch games I’ve DVRd if I know the score… and since my two national teams are playing each other i DEFINITELY want to watch the whole thing.

  16. There’s only one Nevada Smith’s, though it’s criminal that they don’t actually have HD there, despite the presence of many HDTVs.
