The following post is from our advertiser, D.C. United.

D.C. United’s home opener is this Saturday and it’s going to be a good one. The first game of the year comes against one of the team’s biggest rivals in the New England Revolution, but before the game kicks-off at 7:30pm, there’s a whole lot of tailgating and music to be had.

Join us on the Armory Mall (just off the Stadium-Armory metro stop) beginning at 5pm for food, beverages, games and more – and then prepare for a concert from DC native and hip-hop superstar Wale at 6pm.

With a new head coach in Curt Onalfo, returning young guns like Chris Pontius, Rodney Wallace, Santino Quaranta and the best goal-scorer in the history of MLS, Señor Jaime Moreno, United is poised for big things in 2010.

Come out and join us.
