MLS Commissioner Don Garber said on Thursday that he will attend Atlanta United’s home-opening game against New York Red Bulls at Georgia Tech’s Bobby Dodd Stadium on March 5.
Garber confirmed the visit in a tweet from @TheSoccerDon in response to the news that the team has sold 27,000 season tickets for its inaugural season.
“Congratulations, Atlanta United! Looking forward to attending the home opener on March 5.”
Atlanta United will play its home games at Bobby Dodd until it moves into the $1.5 billion Mercedes-Benz Stadium on July 30, where it will face Orlando.
