New Mexico United fan Jason "J-Fro" Richardson cheers for his team as it takes the field before the start of a game against the Colorado Springs Switchbacks on Sept. 19. Despite playing at Weidner Field in Colorado Springs, the United technically played host to the Switchbacks because they are unable to host games in their own stadium in Albuquerque, N.M., due to COVID-19 concerns. Reportedly, more than 800 New Mexicans showed up for the game. (Forrest Czarnecki/The Gazette)
