The 100th Copa America is in the USA this year (1st time ever).
Bought tickets about three months ago for Argentina vs Chile (about 2 hours away in Santa Clara, California).
Yep, tickets up in the nosebleed section of the stadium (this is where the San Francisco 49ers play American Football).
I wanted to say that I've seen Lionel Messi play in person at least one time in my life.

Do you see him there playing? Right there. The guy in the white jersey.
Of course not. He was on the bench the entire match due to an injury sustained last week in an International Friendly leading up to the Copa America. He was a listed sub, but as soon as Arg went up 2 - nil, we all knew that he wasn't going to enter. ARGH. Oh well. Got to watch some other big name professionals... Aguero, Sanchez (Go Gunners!!), Di Maria, Mascherano, Higuain, Vidal.
