DENVER — Football fans who don’t like American football will have the chance to enjoy “the beautiful game” without all that boring talk about TDs, huddles, punts and fumbles at Empower Field at Mile High later this spring.
That’s because Mexico’s Men’s National Team will play against Uruguay at Mile High stadium as part of the 2024 MexTour. The game is scheduled for Wednesday, June 5.
Denver was one of five cities selected on the annual U.S. Tour, joining Chicago; College Station, Texas; Pasadena, Calif.; and Arlington, Texas.
“We are thrilled to return with the MexTour to loyal fanbases in Chicago, Denver, Pasadena and Arlington, where the fans—year after year—have embraced the Mexican National Team with remarkable passion,” said Soccer United Marketing executive vice president Camilo Durana.
