Goeiedag! Hope you are well and enjoyed the game yesterday. Very exciting for Canada to advance to the Round of 16 where they will face either Morocco or ... the Netherlands? That's awkward! Haha. We'll see what happens tonight as Oranje take on Morocco for their Round of 32 knockout match. If we win, we'll discuss the potential identity crisis issues tomorrow!
For now, we need your focus to be on Oranje! Opening our doors at 7:30 p.m. for a 9 p.m. kickoff! As always, it's first come, first served. No reservations. As is always the case, the further Netherlands advance in these tournaments, the more interest grows in attending. So a reminder that we are a tiny place and fill up fast. Our friends at Sauce () will be showing the game on their back patio. While they normally also show the game in the bar, they have live music scheduled tonight so more limited space for this match. Remember, .to, .to and are all Oranje-friendly venues you can visit as well!
.. And while we've hosted some really special crowds these past three games, it came to our attention that on Thursday someone was holding what limited chairs we have for their friends who had not yet arrived. That's not the way this should work, especially if you're denying someone a chair who needed to sit. We've said that if you're attending, you should be comfortable with standing for the game. But thankfully, we've mostly had people offer up their chairs for older fans or those more in need of a seat, and would like to think that courtesy will be extended tonight. Sorry to nag, but we really hope for everyone to have as good a time as possible here and not to disappoint anyone with the limited space we have available.
OK, can't wait to see you tonight to cheer on Onze Nederlandse Elftal for their first knockout match of the tournament. HUP!
