Trivia answers: Latif Blessing has actually won the #USOpenCup twice (2017 #SportingKC & 2022 #LAFC). Lexington head coach Terry Boss (who was an assistant coach with #AustinFC before taking the job) won 3 USOC titles with the #Sounders from 2009-2011.

To be fair, that photo was from the Semifinal game at Minnesota United. That's a pretty impressive #AustinFC traveling supporters section for a midweek game. Also, I don't see *that* many empty seats in that one section
