FUTBOL!

Yesterday Britni, Kaitlyn, and I went to the Fiorentina Futbol Match! I've been wanting to do that forever and could not wait to get there. We had to take the bus for the first time and we're nervous we'd get on the wrong one and get lost but luckily when we got off we saw the swarms of purple all heading in the same direction and could hear the distant sounds of a stadium. It was all in italian and we didn't understand a word but once we hit the tailgate we knew we'd made it.It was like a college football game in a different language. Everyone was so pumped for the game vs. Rome. I couldn't wait! We had no idea which gate to go in so we had some of the workers directing us and we had to walk all the way around but that's ok now we know for future reference. The fans are nuts, they never sit in their seats and are constantly singing and cheering and getting into fights with the other teams fans. It was quite the experience. It was such a beautiful stadium too, situated perfectly with the tuscany mountains surrounding us. Very pretty. Unfortunatly Florence lost but we'll be going back soon!
