Just approach, appear friendly and outgoing, ask if they'd mind if you could join them, and you'll probably be offered a beer regardless. But bringing a couple of beers for yourself would be well received. Then talk about soccer and stuff.
There's a Facebook group for section 109 (neighbours across the corner from the Foot Soldiers) where a couple of people in particular seem to be the driving force for the tailgates. Sitting in 109 is not necessary to join the group.

The same people also post in the main Foot Soldiers Facebook group a bit too:

I usually don't get to the games early enough for much tailgating, though I stop in when I can. The vibe is pretty laid back and welcoming.
