Major League Lacrosse (MLL), the premier professional outdoor lacrosse league, announced today that the 2008 Major League Lacrosse All-Star Game will take place on Thursday, July 17, 2008 at 8:00 PM MDT at Denver’s INVESCO Field at Mile High, according to MLL Commissioner David Gross.

The game, which will be broadcast live on ESPN2, will once again feature the popular Bud Light Skills Competition during halftime. Tickets to the event are on sale now and begin at just $10 for general admission. Individual tickets can be purchased through Ticketmaster by calling 303-830-TIXS (8497), 719-520-9090, or online at www.ticketmaster.com.  Group tickets are available by phone by calling 303-Outlaws, and online at www.denveroutlaws.com.

INVESCO Field is home to the MLL’s Denver Outlaws.  Since joining the league in 2006, the Outlaws have made it to the post-season each year.  Off the field, Denver has enjoyed some of the best attendance figures in the League.  The Denver Outlaws inaugural game at INVESCO Field set what at the time was a league record with 13,167 fans in attendance, a record which was broken later that season at another Denver home game.  In 2007, the Denver Outlaws set a professional lacrosse attendance record when 19,793 fans attended their match against the Chicago Machine on July 4th.

Denver is clearly a hotbed of lacrosse activity, both indoor and outdoor. I think this is a great place for the All-Star Game. If they ever consider a neutral site championship game, Denver would be a great place for that, too.
