Personal Narrative: Why I Love Football

963 Words4 Pages

Something that I am most fluent in has to be football. Many people love NFL football, but for it to be loved by woman, that is very odd. I often get funny looks by men, thinking she’s a girl, how can she love football this much? Most girls can 't tell you what just happened in a play, but I assure you I can. For years I loved football, but it was about sixth grade when I first started to like it. My dad was really into it, he 'd watch it every Sunday, Monday or Thursday whenever the Pittsburgh Steelers played. I used to hate it so much. The games were always so long, and all I wanted to do was play with my dad but he would get mad if I even talked. But that 's how almost every football fan is. For me, it was a tad bit boring. But now, it is …show more content…

We went to a fan blitz about two years ago. The fan blitz is an event held at Heinz field, where the steelers home field is. They have former and current players signing autographs. We get to walk out on the field where they have many different events such as, people throwing and practicing kicking a football, a picture booth with a bunch of Steeler decorations, and many other events. They took us on a tour all around the stadium, even in the locker room. It was huge, and it stunk like a pair of old dirty socks. But that was very exciting, knowing they get ready in that same room before every home game. On our way there was a feeling I can 't ever describe. Going through that tunnel, seeing and going across the big yellow bridge, then I’m looking to my left, and seeing the stadium was breathtaking. My stomach was in a huge knot. When we walked inside it was incredible. My sister and I was overjoyed. After we got settled in we went upstairs hoping, to see some of the players and get stuff signed by them. Shaun Suisham, The Steelers former kicker until he tore his ACL, was there. When I saw him, my mind was in another world it was the best feeling ever. Both my sister and I have steeler hats signed by him. That day was the best day ever, that is until we get to go

    Generally, the overall atmosphere of the Coliseum is upbeat and energetic but the atmosphere can change depending on how well the team is playing and the types of calls made by the referees. I chose the Coliseum as a location because there are mass amounts of people, generally a positive atmosphere and it is an excellent way to observe people acting naturally amongst their family and friends. However, this was an incredibly close game that went into double overtime so emotions were on high as fans anxiously awaited a Mountaineer victory. When I attend games at the Coliseum, I’m seated in the upper student section that is filled with both Gen Z and Gen Y students and an occasional Gen X fan. At this week’s game

    A few weeks ago, I was finally able to make my first Georgia Southern baseball game. I am not proud that it took over a year for me to ultimately make a game. I have never been the biggest baseball fan, but I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to see Georgia Southern play the University of Georgia. I was very curious to see how the stadium and field looked, because I heard about the new renovations that the school added in the offseason. I also was interested to analyze how they promote their sponsors, because I will be doing the same thing when I start my internship this fall, at East Coweta High School.

    Being shoved to the ground and coming up with a mouthful of turf and a bloody nose isn’t the ideal way to spend a friday night, but for me, it's something I put blood, sweat, and tears into. Soccer has been a passion of mine since my father dropped me off at the local YMCA when I was at the tender age of four. Spending all of my free days for thirteen years running after a soccer ball is arguably what made me into the person I am today. Unity, tenacity, passion and pride have all been morals that are valued within the sport and in my own philosophy. I have explored places I’d never give a second thought to because my sport took me there.
