SAN DIEGO -- Soccer fans celebrated the announcement of a new MLS team on its way to San Diego in 2025.
Hundreds of fans gathered at Snapdragon Stadium for the "Let's Kick It" party.
There was a scarf giveaway of 1,000 scarves for the first fans. The scarves were gone within 24 minutes of the gates opening.
It was a part for people to mingle and socialize, eat and drink beer.
San Diego Loyal and Wave fans said they are looking forward to cheering on a third San Diego soccer team.
