He said the experience is surreal, and beyond excited.
“Get down here and experience this, it's infectious, it's exciting," he said. “We're making sure we got all the smoke ready. All the flags are going to be waving confetti, make sure it's going to be like a party-like atmosphere.”
Hitz is expecting a win, with FC Tulsa having already won the Western Conference Championship.
Because of the earlier game time, 83 United is organizing a tailgate at 7am.
"We're starting our tailgate at 7am it's going to be a breakfast tailgate, so we're going to have biscuits and gravy, all the Oklahoma staples."
