Taylor Twellman and Jesse Marsch traded first half goals as New England scored a 1-1 draw away to Chivas USA in front of 92,650 at the Coliseum.
The teams, on a double bill with the CD Guadalara v Barcelona friendly, shared a pair in front of the largest crowd in MLS history.
Revs captain Joe Franchino was over the moon to be playing such an atmosphere.
"If you can't get inspired by this, there's got to be something wrong," he told the club website. "The atmosphere is great, the crowd is great, the weather is great."
