The Los Angeles Galaxy have pulled out all the stops in anticipation of their August 27th match against the Vancouver Whitecaps. They’re commemorating the match with one of the greatest match day posters you’ll ever see. Inspired by the legendary series of children’s books “Where’s Waldo?”, the poster challenges readers to locate forward Alan Gordon amidst an amusing StubHub Center crowd.

Gordon enjoys a cult-like status in Los Angeles, so it’s no surprise to see him immortalized in such brilliant fashion. While the striker has been unable to find the net in 12 matches this season, the classic target forward is a super-sub known for scoring late goals for the Galaxy.
Designed by illustrator Neil Numberman, the poster is available for purchase through the LA Galaxy website.
Before taking on Vancouver in LA, the Galaxy travel to the Bronx on Saturday to face off against New York City FC. That game will be broadcast nationally on ESPN at 3:00pm ET.
