Fall is probably my favorite season. Part of that is due to the fact that I like to go out to the U of P and watch women’s soccer. Merlo Field is the Home of the Portland Pilots Soccer teams. For 20yrs now I’ve enjoyed watching soccer @ Merlo Field. With out a doubt the best College Soccer Stadium in the Nation. Merlo Field is where Magic Happens.

Great place to watch a soccer match. Very intimate and up close. The pitch was in fantastic shape last night. The food and beverage vendors are good. I recommend you bring a pad to sit on if you have one.

I admit I’m not an expert at venues for sporting events. I attended an exhibition game of the Timbers vs Manchester City tonight at Merlo Field. I am told that Champion’s League teams will only play on grass fields and thus the Timbers were unable to host at the usual PGE park. Merlo Field is a smaller field. The seats didn’t seem ideal for watching soccer(or football as the rest of the world calls it). All the seats were really low and it was difficult to see over people. The killer for me was that the vendors don’t take credit cards(ok, I didn’t go to every single vendor asking). I didn’t really realize I would be at U of P tonight, but I would like to think that at a major sporting event I would be able to enjoy snacks without having to make a trip to the ATM. Snacks are the most vital part of the game!
