When I was younger, my father took me to see a Seattle Sounders game. My dad got tickets for the game about a week before the match was scheduled. However, the game we were going to watch live was not any ordinary soccer game, it was a Seattle vs Portland game. Many consider the Seattle-Portland rivalry the best in the league with how many fans get involved and overall how good the games usually are and for an 11 year old like myself at the time I could not have imagined I would be attending one of those games. The experience was not how I thought it would be like however. It was like opening a new set of legos, you're just so amazed at everything you do not know what to do. The game was set to be played on a Saturday, which was the day most soccer games were played at that time since that was how the schedule worked out. I remember my mother waking me up that morning telling me she had made breakfast. Back then I would wake up late around 11 am or 10 am, so it was not a surprise that breakfast was already made. To me my mother is a great cook, as everything she makes I happen to enjoy. After I finished my breakfast, I started to get ready even though my dad was not planning on heading out to Seattle for a couple hours. My dad was planning to leave around 3 since the game started around 6 in the …show more content…
There was a large line of people also trying to get into the stadium. For a line that stretched out for almost a block ,it went by quick and I was surprised by that. We were in line for no longer than 10 minutes. After getting to the front I realized it was because the workers were just scanning peoples tickets and letting them in. We got our tickets scanned and we proceeded to enter the stadium. Entering that stadium is a feeling i will never forget. When I enter a soccer stadium like centurylink it feels as if I am crossing to a whole new world. You see people cheering and having a good time and
When you walk into the red and blue dome the unique, sweaty smell of the stadium and the roaring sounds of the crowd for some reason, seemed to made you even more excited. It only
On the day of the game we got there early to gain a good parking spot. Like they say the early bird gets the worm. Also that's what they told us to do.
After catching a game at Cincinnati McNicholas high school yesterday afternoon, I headed to Taft high school to watch another game. This one featured two Cincinnati high schools I had never watched play before. Aiken and Gamble Montessori, at a stadium I had never been to. When all was said and done the game ended up being hard faught and very compeitive and I got to see a player, who was as good as any I have watched this season.

It seemed like every other Sunday in every other soccer tournament I had ever played. I play on the U-16 Shock Black team. We are a Division 1 competitive team. We were playing at Katy Park in Houston, and it was early evening and cold for February. I went through the motions with my team through warm up and kick off.
They were seats on the glass. Just sitting in the first row alone was exhilarating; however, the Blues had just signed the legendary goalie Martin Brodeur who was starting his first game for the team that night. I had glass seats for Brodeur’s first game as a Blue. Along with being at that game, I was at Martin Brodeur’s last game ever. If he had publicly announced that he would be retiring I am sure that the tickets would have been much more expensive and I would not have been able to go.
It was just amazing feeling to be there. Music was playing, fans were screaming, and it was just loud. The lighting was very bright then the usual rinks in America that I played for the other teams. And after I see this, I promised myself that I would never forget this game and the
My family and I were in Ohio visiting family when we got the news that my uncle had tickets available for us so that we could go to the game. We left early on Sunday morning with a plan of seeing a quality football game. However, there one thing that would this more difficult than we had hoped. It was a cold day in Kansas City, and it started to ran as we came in.
After we waited for maybe an hour just to ge tinto the stadium. When we were walking up to our seats we can hear the loud crowd all over the stadium we could here the cheers when the Dodger were taking the field and also the boooos the Rockies were getting when they were up to bat. I thought to my self how would it feel if we were Rockies fans and we got screamed at when we would walk up to our chairs.
When you arrive at the show you can see Soldier Field which I guess is cool even though I really don’t like football. However the site will be ruined because of parking being $20 for 4 people and traffic being terrible ,but I guess hearing middle eastern uber drivers yelling at people makes up for that. Entering you’ll probably walk 50ft. until you get inside. The air is usually
When I was 7 years old I went to my first high school game with my mom, the teams that played were Roosevelt and Flower. I will never forget that day Sept 8th at 8PM friday night lights. My older cousin Brett Pierce was the starting Cornerback for flowers, I admired him because he the starting Corner and he was ranked #23 in the Nation for his position. My cousin ended the game with 18 tackles, 4 interceptions, and 3 forced fumbles that was one of the greatest days of my life. After the game was over I asked my mom could she sign me up to play football, she told me I wasn’t big enough.
Then we got to Ames and you could see the stadium it the distance. Making our way to the stadium was horrendous with all the traffic, but when we arrived you could tell it was game day. The parking lots were filled and people gathered to the parking lot by the hundreds or even thousands as it seemed to me. Everywhere I looked there was another person that I had never seen before in my life.
It all went so fast, but suddenly the Bid Red’s had scored another goal! The crowd clapped and waved with their Big Red banners. It started off with another face-off. The Bid Red’s got the ball again and tried immediately to make a goal. You could really feel the tension in the crowd.
This complex is a baseball stadium that can seat nearly 10,000 people. Competing under these lights in front of all these people would genuinely be a once in a lifetime experience. It was 8 P.M. in Florida and we were in the warm up room. When we got done warming up, my team and I started our long walk down the stairs. These stairs are well known at Worlds to be horrible and full of anxiety.
We also got wings because you can 't not get wings. It was just the four of us Jackson, Craig, Me, and my dad. Our seats were perfect. They were on the 50 yard line 20 rows up. Our friends had season tickets.
I screamed, “CRISTEL!!!!!!!!!!!!” as loud as I possibly can so I know she can hear me. She scored an amazing goal at the end of the game. As she was signing other girls down the row my mind drifted back to the game when,Carli Lloyd sent in a perfect cross, Cristel Dunn’s head and the ball met and it went into the goal.
