Minority owner of the club and world famous actor Matthew McConaughey spoke about the release of the unique jersey, saying: “The spirit of the ‘Dillo is still alive today.
The music, the party, the creativity, and the belief in Austin as a place where all walks of life come together to celebrate community. It’s a uniquely-Austin experience, and that spirit that was created at the ‘Dillo is alive and well at Q2 Stadium on an Austin FC matchday.”
Austin FC finished in 25th position in last season’s MLS and will hope for a stronger campaign in 2024. The club kick off their season against Minnesota United on February 24.
