In the 13 years that the Colorado Rapids have been in existence they've tried everything from airborne explosives to heavy metal-themed advertising to get butts in seats. Naturally the next move is wet-T-shirt or Marcello Balboa "Hair Care" night, but that might be frowned upon by certain parties. So what else is there to do but transform the pitch at DSG Park into the squared circle of Lucha Libre.
On Cinco De Mayo you can do one of two things. You can go to DSG Park for “FutboLucha 2008” and see the Rapids play DC United followed by the first ever officially sanctioned Lucha Libre match in the US. Or you could spend it seated on a bar stool next to some wasted cougar at your local Chili's drinking crap margarita's and getting food poisoning from toxic guacamole.
Personally, if I were in the Denver area I would pick the masked men in tights as they are far less scary than the bar at a suburban chain restaurant on Saturday night (I should know, I live in New Jersey).

The link to the wet t-shirt contest must be broken
This "the first ever officially sanctioned Lucha Libre match in the US" is bullshit. I say this because I'm a nerd for correctness. Lucha has run shows all over this country for years now. In fact LA and San Diego used to be routine stops.
Hijo De Santo vs Blue Demon Jr. should bring in some fans. Mistico was mentioned (one of the biggest stars in lucha right now) but I find it hard to believe that he will be there.
Will Ramses be there? Nacho?
Gregg,
i think you need help.
