Minnesota United FC Hosts Home Opener In Snow At TCF Bank Stadium

Minnesota United FC yesterday drew a crowd of 35,043 for its home MLS debut against Atlanta United at snow-covered TCF Bank Stadium. The temperature was 20 degrees at kickoff, tied with the '13 MLS Cup for the "record for coldest game since the league started recording it" in '03. A Minnesota United official said that delaying the match to a "more pleasant summer month was never seriously considered." Hundreds of supporters "marched to the match, set off smoke bombs, chanted and waved flags an hour before the match." MLS Commissioner Don Garber attended the game (ST. PAUL PIONEER PRESS, 3/13).
