Schweitzberger said "playoff soccer" and "being a fan of the team" rousted him out of bed so early for an adventure he estimated would keep him awake for the next 28 hours. Minnesota United fans made some noise before Monday night’s playoff game at Dallas. Schweitzberger's love for the beautiful game started with a single day out in which he quickly determined a soccer fan's experience is like no other. "I decided to go to a game with a friend and I was hooked," he said, wearing a Minnesota United sweatshirt and scarf. They had just marched through the darkness from a parking-lot tailgate party with FC Dallas fans and into the bright stadium lights not long before game time.
