Herriman • As the whistle blew to start the Real Monarchs’ first match at Zions Bank Stadium, cars were still backed up onto Mountain View Corridor, filing into the second overflow lot for the stadium.
Single game tickets ranged from $9 to $40, and 4,065 fans flocked to the new stadium to watch a 0-0 draw between the Monarchs and the Las Vegas Lights.
Once the fans got into the stadium, which was built in conjunction with the Zions Bank Real Academy, they were greeted by an intimate viewing experience. The 5,000-seat stadium put them just steps away from the turf.
