RSL Game

The boys play soccer and got free tickets to a Real Salt Lake (Major League Soccer) game. It was parks and rec night so all the kids got to go out on the field before the game. The boys were in heaven! Standing on the same field as Kyle Beckerman at the same time-they felt like a million bucks! The game was pretty fun too. It was a first for all of us, but fun to experience the MLS crowd. The stadium is awesome too! I'm not up on soccer rules and stuff, but the crowd was into it and we had a great time. It was crazy though because fans would throw streamers onto the field and they just stayed there during the game. One of the players got tangled up in it and it wouldn't come off his shoe. Then there was the rowdy section across the field from us. They brought a bunch of big drums and played them the ENTIRE game. Then every few minutes they would let off smoke bombs and at one point they pulled out a ginormous RSL flag that covered over the entire section. Gotta give em props for all that enthusiasm! Especially considering that no one scored the entire game. Yes, the game ended in a tie, 0-0. I was so disappointed, but I guess thats the way it goes with soccer. Maybe we'll go to another game so we can actually see a goal scored!
