I <3 Soccer

The opportunity of a life time came to me just a couple weeks ago so I jumped on it. I work with Juan, right? You know, the guy from the last post?? Right, so I was listening to the Spanish station on the radio (don't laugh, and no, I don't undersand all of what they are saying but I was doing it for Juan OK? Gosh!) when Juan said (because even though I was listening really hard......... I still don't understand what they are saying) Brazil was gonna be playing USA on the 9th of September and tickets were going on sale! I practly jumped out of my skin! Two of the greatest teams in the world going head to head in my home town?!? Not to mention playing the sport that I love on a field that I love! Who could say no? I ravenously hunted down ways I could get a hold of these tickets and when I found them... I pounced. I had heard that these tickets could be upwards of $200 but I was willing to sell my right arm if that's what it would take (actually that's stretching the truth just a little, but I really did want a good seat). The really good seats (front row) were all sold out when I went to make my purchase so I had to settle for twelve rows back (I know what you're thinking.... I was willing to pay 200 bucks for one ticket but I setteled for twelve rows back!?) Lets be realistic, the twelveth row price was 60 bucks and they were right where I wanted to sit anyway so...... Yeah, I setteled but instead of taking only one other person with me.... I took three. Ha! Take that, you front row buying people! Basically I paid $60 a seat and the view was awesome.... The game was awesome.... The company was awesome..... The only thing that wasn't awesome.... I missed the last two goals because I was getting snacks and drinks (yes I'm not happy about that but it was still all worth it)

Here are some shots from the game....
