Re: Downtown Soccer Stadium (Abbott Drive)
I've been told there are still a few things to work out with city of omaha until it's officially official, but I'm assuming that's infrastructure costs, etc. But, there is no expectation that it won't happen at this point. Just some jockeying between the city and team on some details. It is definite...

Re: Union Omaha 2024
Season ticket holders were allowed to start buying their tickets for the US Open Cup match against SKC at the match on Saturday.

Re: Union Omaha 2024
Also, I'm not even sure SKC would agree to play at Werner. It's honestly a safety hazard at times. The fresh sod the other night was starting to peel all around the pitchers mound. That barely flies in USL League One, and certainly doesn't fly anymore in MLS. The only spot that still utilizes a base...

Re: Union Omaha 2024
I hope they can find a bigger/better venue than Werner for that game, which I believe would be the first MLS match ever in NE. Nope. will actually be smaller, but that's fine.

Re: Oak View Mall (144 & West Center Rd)

Re: Five Guys Burgers and Fries
I have only been to Stella's 1-2 times, but I didn't care for it b/c it was overpriced and came out on a napkin. The bun and burger were both stuck to it. Ok. pick any other local bar. Dinkers, Hyde's Slydes. You can get a better burger and support a non-chain restaurant for about the same price.
