Ok, all you all, if you read BYT you know that our sports coverage tends to extend one of two ways: hating Michael Phelps, and loving DC united. So, with the team, we’ve got a pretty cool promotion for you that may find you in front of a camera with United players taking part in a photo shoot.
A little background: On Tuesday, September 3, United is playing in its first championship game since 2004 - the U.S. Open Cup final against the Charleston Battery. It’s big. Real big.
Full disclosure: The team wants a ton of people there to scare the pants off the Battery.
Because of that, we’ve got a special discounted ticket offer for you. Here’s how it breaks down:
Mezzanine: $40 each ($10 savings per ticket)
VIP: $27 each ($8 savings)
Premium: $22 ($6 savings)
Spectator: $16 ($4 savings)
Seating chart here
The minimum order for this offer is four tickets, so grab a few friends and circle Tuesday the 3rd on your calendar.
Now, here’s the kicker - every person that purchases tickets will be entered for a chance to participate in a exclusive photo shoot with United players. Once we pick a winner, we’ll figure out a date and time for the photo shoot to take place and you’ll get an hour-long session with a BYT photographer.
So, how do you order?
Call one of the DC United customer service reps at 202-587-5467 (Caithlin) or 202-587-5466 (Kim) and tell them you want the BrightestYoungThings ticket offer. They’ll hook you up like there’s no tomorrow. If you win the photo shoot, we’ll contact you soon thereafter the September 3 game and figure out the best time to make you a star.
Sound good?
Yes.
*At least, that’s what we hope you’re thinking.

PS - Be sure to get your order in before 5:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday, September 2.
Fine print: Or, if you don’t want to purchase tickets to a really sweet soccer game - and because we have to align with the whole “no purchase neccesary to win thing,” you can also be entered to win the photo shoot by sending us the following information: Name, address, phone number, email addresss, shoe size, favorite United player, favorite color and your favorite all-time band. Send it to the attention of Kyle Sheldon at this address. Keep in mind our contest rules, too.
I’m only participating if I get to oil them down between shots.
