Has anyone been to a pro soccer game?

We have the opportunity to goto one on a Saturday. The game starts at 8 pm which is near bedtime for my boys. I am wondering if anyone knows how long a game lasts? And what age child would you take? Is 7 too young for this? I am thinking it's just too late at night for us, but my boys are soccer players so I know they would love to go.

Our local team is Real Salt Lake. The games are a blast! The halves are each 45 minutes, and the clock doesn't stop, like it does in football. It's fast paced, and really fun. At our local games there are all sorts of crazy things going on all the time (giveaways, drum contests, etc.). My kids normally go to bed by 8, and I will occasionally take them to a game. My oldest (age 7) does the best. He loves soccer.

Definitely go! Soccer games are fun.

We took DD when she was 3ish. Also an evening game. I would definitely take a 7 year old who played soccer!
