CARSON, Calif. (Tuesday, July 12, 2005) - Chivas USA President Antonio Cué and Los Angeles Galaxy President Doug Hamilton have agreed upon a two-part bet for the third Honda Super Clasico, to be played on Saturday, July 16, 2005 at 7:00 p.m. PT at The Home Depot Center.
According to the terms of the bet, the President of the losing team will invite 50 underprivileged children to the next home match of the winning team, buying his guests a meal and accompanying them during the match.
Per the other half of the bet, the President of the losing team will also serve lunch to the winning president at the Stadium Club restaurant of The Home Depot Center on a date to be determined.
Chivas USA comes into Saturday's showdown having recorded the second victory of its inaugural season, beating Real Salt Lake 5-1 on Saturday at The Home Depot Center. The four-goal win marked the largest margin of victory by any MLS team so far in 2005.
