My wife likes to sleep in. I was up with the dog(s). Made for perfect Saturday and Sunday morning viewing leading into college football in the fall

What's an Arsenal? What's an ajax?
But that was the only non MLS thing on mass market English language TV in the US. 2006 was a game changer because fox soccer got the rights to more (but not all) EPL games and available on some regular

Like some other American millennials, the 1994 world cup was my introduction to soccer. Then really started watching but didn't really understand the competitions during high school afternoons doing homework while watching the champions league. Pre Wikipedia.

But even within the mountain areas, it can be a couple hours between venues. Need more time and money to do more than maybe 1 or 2 events per day

Paid in state tuition at ole miss in the early 2000s from a theatre design scholarship for a few years then from being in band, along with some other academic scholarships. Not a full ride but as cheap as it could have been for me
