Columbus Crew host Los Angeles FC in Saturday's MLS Cup championship game, and tickets at Lower.com went quickly, abetted by a sponsor-leak fiasco.

But fans of the black and gold can still watch the game, which kicks off at 4 p.m., with a crowd of like-minded supporters.

The Columbus Commons plans to show MLS Cup on the lawn on Saturday. The Commons will have the game playing on its two outdoor screens with audio amidst its holiday lights. The event will have a pop-up bar from 4 to 6 p.m. and Tortilla Street Food will be serving from their food truck.

"Bring your own lawn chairs and an umbrella just in case," the Commons posted on Facebook. "No fee- just show up in black and gold."

In addition, several Columbus area restaurants and bars will be showing the game. The Nordecke fan group listed these places as partners that plan to broadcast the game:

  • Land Grant: 424 W. Town St., Columbus

  • Endeavor: 909 W. 5th Ave., Columbus

  • Parsons North Brewing: 685 Parsons Ave., Columbus
