Kickoff is at 5:50pm on FOX Sports 1, with the pregame being broadcast live from inside the stadium. Both the official U.S. Soccer events and the American Outlaws tailgate will start at 2. The official events will be in the VIP East lot,, across the main drive from the normal C38 tailgate lot. The Outlaws tailgate will be further East in Lot D and there's some overlap between the AO Denver and the C38 tailgate crew so you should have a good idea what to expect.
There's also a pop-up U.S. Soccer store on the 16th St. Mall at 16th & California that will be open until 8pm tonight and from 9am to kickoff tomorrow. US Soccer will also have gear for sale both at their pre-game events in the parking lot and of course in the stadium. The website shows red and navy hats and scarves made specifically for this game, I bought the navy scarf yesterday at the 16th St. Mall store (which didn't have the red scarf). There will also be a ton of non-game specific gear.
Tim Howard has been named the starter in net so Rapids fans will have one of their own to root for. Mikeil Williams is on the T&T team but I doubt many Rapids fans will give him more than cursory applause if he plays tomorrow. This is a game the US should win and I expect they will. The Yanks are clearly better than the Soca Warriors and being at home should make this somewhat easy (as easy as any World Cup Qualifier gets).
