Turn in Crew gear, get 30% off at downtown store

Crew Merch Trade in

CINCINNATI – Ahead of Sunday’s #HellisReal rivalry game against the Columbus Crew at Nippert Stadium, soccer fans in the Cincinnati area now have added incentive to turn Ohio FC Cincinnati’s “Orange and Blue.”


Soccer fans will receive a 30% discount off their total on-site purchase at the FC Cincinnati Team Shop if they bring in Columbus Crew gear – t-shirts, jerseys, sweatshirts, etc. – and make an FCC purchase. The promotion will run until the store closes at 5 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 24. | Store directions and hours


With Sunday’s game tagged a “Blue Out” game, FCC fans attending the game are encouraged to wear blue on Sunday. Fans who purchase from the special “Blue Out” selection in store between now and Thursday at 5 p.m. will also receive a ticket to an exclusive meet and greet with FCC defender – and Cincinnati native – Nick Hagglund on Thursday night.


Sunday’s 6 p.m. game against Columbus will be televised nationally on FS1, kicking off the network’s three-game, seven-hour Heineken Rivalry Week broadcast that also includes the Dallas-Houston game at 8 p.m. and the LAFC-LA Galaxy game at 10:30 p.m.


A limited number of tickets still remain for Sunday’s #HellisReal game against Columbus. While general admission tickets have already sold out, tickets remaining start at $25. Individual and group tickets are available for Sunday’s game – and all remaining home games – at fccincinnati.com/tickets or by calling 513-977-5425 (KICK).


Cincinnati and Columbus met just two weeks ago in their first-ever MLS meeting, playing to a 2-2 draw at MAPFRE Stadium.
