Passing Pattern - Vol 3 Launch @ Skyline Pitch

I was excited to attend the release of Passing Pattern Vol. 3. I love what these guys are doing—it’s the perfect mix of local and international perspectives on the beautiful game. The event took place at the stunning Skyline Pitch and featured free matches organized by Wolcott FC, vintage apparel curated by Crossbar, and music from Guesst. It was a perfect display of the cohesion within Chicago’s soccer community.

Chicago: Saturdays Football + Good Vibes John - MUFC Kitted Up Party

I went to the recent Manchester United Kitted UP party hosted by Good Vibes John at Saturday's Football. The event brought out several other MUFC social media personalities as well. It was fun to see the variety of kits the supporters wore. I think the general consensus was that the reversible 2001 van Nistelrooy kit was the best in show, though the 1995 grey kit was also high on my list. All in all, a great night in Chicago to celebrate the Devils—and Umbro!
