Lots of stuff going on today, but we did want to ask everyone an important question before we forget: Where are you watching the USA-South Africa game on Saturday? Yes, we know it’s early, especially for those on the West Coast, which doesn’t present too many bar options for a 6 a.m. kickoff (although, we’d love to hear about a bar that is opening early enough for the match), so we understand if you end up being curled up on the couch to see the boys do their thing. But for those that look for the ET or CT on the TV listings, you’ve got options. Your best bet? Summers in the D.C. area, Ginger’s Ale House in Chicago or Nevada Smith’s for you New Yorkers. All three will be hosting an official U.S. Soccer Viewing Party for the game on Saturday and you’re invited to wipe away the eye crust and join in the debauchery…we mean good 'ole fashion fun. Why? Well, free U.S. Soccer gear for one. Each bar will hold a contest to giveaway a supply of t-shirts and hats, so all you gear hounds better make your way there. If you’re going to one of these big three, let us know. And if you’re interested in joining, click here to find out where each bar is located, get a map to find your way there and find out what to expect on Saturday.
So, we asked it when we started this entry and we'll end the same way - What are your plans for this Saturday?

I'll either be at Summers in DC or at the viewing party at RFK
If you are in DC for the MLS Cup The DCenters and Du Nord are having a viewing party at Summers. Come one and all and join us for some good times.
getting up at 6am. Putting on a bathrobe and stumbling from my bed to the couch where I will precede to wake up all my housemates by yelling, cheering and complaining at the top of my voice throughout my game. And then going back to bed after we win.
RFK PARTY!!!
I will be at Summers along with the DCenter crew & duNord
Streaming the game in my dorm room in Liverpool, UK. Probably pissing of my English flat mates by chanting U-S-A!! for 90 minutes straight!!
Unfortunately having to watch the online matchtraker because I can't get FSC on my tv in my dorm =(
Tommy Keegan's (Columbus, OH)
summers along with friends who are flying in for the cup
on a plane to bwi...I'll have to catch the match on the DVR when I return from MLS Cup
I would be at the Brewhouse in Atlanta but since my flight lands in Dc at 9am on Saturday I'll be rushing over to the RFK party hoping to see the second half!
Streaming FSC since I dont' have FSC, AND Galavision is not broadcasting live on the west coast. Would have loved to had a 6:00am bar run, but with a 4 year old that is awfully tough. I'll be thinking of you guys/gals on the East coast though!
flying in from detroit the night before... going to Summer's with my D.C. United buddies.
Amy (not the trivia queen)
I'll be fresh out of bed, probably eating breakfast, and watching in my dorm in Boston.
at 9:00 am i'll be streaming it in my room, hopefully it will not mess up becuase i don't have fsc cause my parents didn't get it. (im only high school)
Sitting right here at my desk in my dorm, streaming the game on my laptop up here in Middlebury, VT.
no quite old enough for the bars especially the game only on at 8, so upstairs, nervous just like always for my teams... melissa youre in liverpool... thats the best club team in the world, reds all the way
West Coast --> couching it!
summers with my teammates and former teammates who are flying in for the cup
I'll be at Summer's, hopefully chowing down on some mediocre corned beef hash.
i get off work at 700am, just in time to get home and tune in for the 800am kick off. If the grandma will watch the kids in might make it to the Local in Minneapolis for an early am pint...its really like my afternoon :)
It'll be 7 am for me. I'll be in bed watching the game, while my husband trying to sleep...
On my couch...was thinking of going to Nevada Smiths, but I can't chance the MTA getting me from queens to manhattan that early on a saturday (and driving is out of the question because I can't sit in Nevada's and not get hammered, even if it's 9am).
I will be at home sitting on the couch with my son in my USA T-shirt cheering them on.
I will be at Ginger's Ale in Chicago enjoying an 8 AM pint, wearing my Donovan jersey and lost in a sea of fellow US fans...
Rolling out of bed at 6am to watch the game... Then heading off to the bar to go watch the Mich/OSU game.. Go Blue!
This isn't really a comment, but I just want to ask how you guys stream FSC online? Thanks!
5:55am Alarm goes off
5:56am First Guiness is popped open
5:57am TV tuned to FSC
5:58am Couch 5 feet from TV
5:59am Guiness ready for consumption
6:00am U-S-A!!
Get up, read everything I can about the game online, drink some coffee, make an egg sandwich, and watch the game. Go to b-ball game and come home and watch the Bucks beat Michigan.
Go USA & Go Bucks!!!
ginger's ale house!!! nothing better than beer with breakfast
anyone know of any pubs showing the game in boston? im not lucky enough to have cable or reliable internet at this time
We don't care what time it is. Give us a US Soccer party on the West Coast. Heck... I'll host it in San Diego! Let's go U.S.!!
Let's "bum rush" Shakespeare's Pub and Grille!"
Virus
