Columbus Crew Tickets

The Columbus Crew have a long and proud history in MLS as one of the 10 remaining teams who helped to found the league way back in 1996. While the Crew were mostly very competitive in their early years, they were left frustrated in the MLS Playoffs for many seasons as they struggled to get past the Semifinals (Conference Finals), losing at that stage three years in a row in the late 1990s. A modicum of success came in 2002 when the Crew claimed their first trophy by winning the US Open Cup with a 1-0 win over the LA Galaxy. The big breakthrough, however, came in 2008, when the Crew not only finished first in the regular season to claim the Supporters’ Shield, but got all the way to the MLS Cup Final for the first time in their history. There, they defeated the New York Red Bulls by a score of 3-1 to claim their first ever MLS Cup, a feat they would repeat in the COVID-troubled season of 2020. Last year, in 2023, the Crew delighted their delirious fans by going on a wild run deep into the MLS Playoffs all the way to the Final again, where they defeated the defending champions Los Angeles FC by a score of 2-1, this time (for the first time) in front of a rapturous sold out home crowd at their state of the art new stadium, Lower.com Field. The Crew’s fans, still on cloud nine after last year’s heroics, are now looking forward to 2024, believing that last year’s core players like Darlington Nagbe, Cucho Hernandez, and Diego Rossi, ​​assisted by new acquisitions like Rudy Camacho, can lead them to that oh-so-elusive repeat.
