They did the first year in 02 also. It was awesome watching World Cup with a big group of other Rooers at 4am.[/quote]
yeah -- i remember watching the US play Germany (i think) in the early morning hours...they had a few big screens set up and the atmosphere was perfect for the game. although the US lost, they had a great tourney. i have not been back to Roo since, and am looking forward to watching some early morning games this year with everyone, 8 years later... i hope it is as hot as it was in '02!
edit:the game will be at 2:30pm Bonnaroo time. If this happened last year it fit in my schedule perfectly. Go to Alejandro Escavedo, grab a beer and stroll over to the cinema tent. watch the game. then head over to of montreal after... have a feeling the curse of conflict may raise it's head this year, but i gotta see my yanks.
I'm hoping no bands are playing during that time. Otherwise might have to follow the game on my phone while watching the show.

There will definitely be bands playing at that time.

The nashville bid thing is for the 2018 & 2022 hosting privileges, not 2014. Still I don't see anything on my calendar at the moment which would prevent me from watching soccer at bonnaroo 8-12 years from now.
I hope they broadcast it as well. The only way I would miss Roo is if I somehow won an all expenses paid trip to the World Cup.
I am fully confident they will broadcast the U.S. World Cup game(s). I don't think they will be offering the other ones, though some may be played during our early morning hours. I wonder what else they'll be showing at the Cinema Tent other than World Cup and NBA Finals?

I agree vector...
When Donovan hit that goal, I went nuts! There is an AWESOME video of people's reactions that some guy from Purdue university made that really shows national pride...
and yes, I cried when I watched it. Almost as powerful as when Al Michaels asked the question in 1980 "Do you believe in miracles?" Tomorrow at 1 pm central time I will believe in my...strike that, OUR team!

I made my preschoolers watch it. When Donovan hit that goal in stoppage, we all freaked! Well, except the youngest one, he started crying cuz we scared him.

I can't believe I have to bump this thread. Also, I have a little man-crush on Landon Donovan.
Little? I have a full-blown man-crush on him.
Seriously, thank the flying spaghetti monster he made that shot because the previous forty-five shots they missed that game really pissed me off. It was like soccer blue balls.

Well, except the one that Clint Dempsey actually made. I'd so like to ask that pos Belgian ref if he ever read about a place called the Ardennes...and if he still enjoys speaking French.
x2. When extra time was added my sister and I went to eat (Mexican, of course, so we could finish the game). We walked in and the television said Final: Ghana 2 Estados Unidos 1. My quesadilla was slightly less delicious.

You're lucky to have missed extra time. It was excruciating. Ghana was so flagrant in running the clock down, but the US could barely gain possession anyway. Just nerve-wracking.

Yeah, that was a tough game to watch.
On another note, I did want to post that it was awesome to watch the USA-England game at the Lunar Stage with all of those people. I was thinking about it and we were probably one of the largest gatherings of Americans watching the game at that moment.
Is disappointed with FIFA and futbol. First, it seems like every time a played is touched he falls to the ground, holds his leg and puts on an acting job worthy of Vince McMahon WWF. And now with all these bad calls, teams making goals and refs not seeing it. Puts a bad taste in my mouth, unless they adapt instant replay, not sure I trust the sport.
