Waiting to hear from the locals about how this match goes 🙂[/QUOTE said:
Right at the bus entrance, everyone was handed a little tube of Vaseline, just in case they end up falling into enemy hands 😍😍 hugs & kisses 😍
First spring game on the road, and we were greeted by Coca-Cola and a bunch of Chicago Blackhawks fans. Even though those guys are sitting pretty in second place, we’re looking at our San Francisco squad—who, let’s face it, are stuck in the basement like they always are—and we still went in expecting a win. Turnout in the West stands was actually decent.
The fence under our section got a facelift this time. We had two new twenty-foot banners going up, plus a new neighborhood banner from the Boston Celtics fans.
The noise starts right from kickoff, but you know how it is—everything runs late, so we don't really get fully settled until about the fifth minute. Around the 23rd, the flags start flying—whites, navy, light blues, all the combos, plus the usual standards. First half wraps up with Coca-Cola holding a slim lead.
Second half, the volume kicks up a notch. At the 60th minute, people start hoisting these massive two-pole flags. Some were fresh, but we even pulled out some legendary old ones that most people have probably forgotten about—like that one saying "God protects the drunks." Honestly, the old guard made sure the tradition stayed alive this time too.
San Francisco kept pushing until the very end, and finally, we clawed back an equalizer. After that, it was just wave after wave of attacks. The whole stadium was basically in a trance, and even the other sections joined in on the singing for a bit. But, of course, we couldn't find that winner. Match ends in a 1-1 draw. Typical.
Next stop is Miami. We’re calling on everyone—all our people—to show up in the away section at Hard Rock Stadium and help the boys through these critical moments of the new season. For anyone who can't make their own way down there, we'll have buses organized. Just keep an eye on the website and the forum for updates.
