Real Salt Lake celebrated their Season Ticket Member Starting XI against LAFC on August 6. The Starting XI is made up of season ticket holders who have been around since the very beginning. These loyal season ticket holders were recognized on the field postgame where they received a team signed RSL kit and a picture on the bench. Thank you to all our season ticket holders for their dedication to the Club.
Curt and Lily Sanders, Section 37 row N seats 19 and 20
Who do you come to games with and what is your favorite memory with them at the RioT?
"Our favorite RSL memory at the RioT was Snowmageddon, April 8, 2017! The conditions were miserable. We were wet and cold but decided to stick it out. Luke Mulholland, Albert Rusnak and Yura Movsisyan each scored to beat Vancouver 3-0. The icing on the cake was watching Mulholland toss a snowball on the field during play. It was truly a magical game.”
Meghan Saunders: Section 1 row U seat 15
Favorite all time player and why?
“My favorite player would probably be Javier Morales. He was magic with the ball, creative and could make things happen on the field.”
Justin Taysom: Section 35 row H seats 19-20.
What’s your favorite part about being a season ticket holder?
“I think my favorite part about being a season ticket holder is the energy and experience in the stadium. Watching on my TV could never compare! I get to experience world-class soccer in person, and only a few minutes from my house.”
Darcy and Adan Peme: Section 235 row ADA seat 5-6.
If you could have dinner with any 3 players, who would you choose and why?
"I would want to have dinner with two players and our coach. First, Pablo Ruiz and Head Coach Pablo Mastroeni because they were both born in Argentina just like me. It would be cool to talk about the Argentina National Team with them. The other player would be Justen Glad. I would pick Justen, because my favorite soccer player of all time is also a defender. We have been watching/rooting for Justen for a long time. Additionally, about seven years ago we met him at a clinic for our kids. He was great, and they got to take pictures with him and get his autograph. He was super gracious, and the kids loved it.”
Patrick Watts: Section 27 row M seats 1-2
What is your favorite part about being a season ticket holder?
"My favorite part about being a season ticket holder is being able to share the sport I enjoy most with the people I love the most. I've had so many memorable experiences at RSL games. It's been a lot of fun.”
Robert Kuehl: Section 11 row GA
What is your favorite part about being a season ticket holder?

Christopher Concha: Section 10 row GA
Who is your favorite RSL player through the years?
"Nick Rimando is my all-time favorite RSL player.”
Skyler Reed: Section 12 row K seats 17-18
Who do you come to games with and what is your favorite memory with them at the Riot?
