Football Idiots.

if youve ever seen the movie green street hooligans. you have a glimpse into what the boys on our dts aspire to be on football nights. my good buddy Vidar, has got me convinced, im a Manchester United fan through and through. Hes crazy about them, like has pre-game jitters from the time he wakes up till game time which is usually past midnight... the games are played on weekends which we have off. so when Man United plays we usually make an effort to get into the city to watch the match and support our club. theres an English Pub in the city called Charles Dickens Tavern. which draws quite the crowd even at 3 am to watch a match. because really to all the people down there, its only 10 back home in the UK. and perfectly normal time to be out drinking.. the songs and chants are an experience in and of themselves. being a part of it is a riot. and when MAN UNITED wins. its a good night.

so on sunday night, we went into the city for the much anticipated Liverpool match. we found ourselves in the sports bar of the crown casino watching it on practically a movie theater screen. ...oh wait let me mention as I was walking into the casino this lady in a fluorescent blue jumper caught my eye sitting at the smallest slot machine in the whole place. this is approx 12 30. k moving on. we watched the match, livepool scored first, but United ended up winning 2 -1. and it was a great night. no money was gambled, we weren't there for that, but again it was a rad place to experience the game.

so around 4 were leaving the casino. make it back to our van and realize that we lost Marcello.

- honestly how do you lose a 23 year old Brazilian in the city. so Matty and I went back into the casino and couldn't find him anywhere. but I did find a lady in a bright blue jumper playing the slots at 4 30 am on a tiny slot machine, looking very tired as if shes been there for say... over 4 hours.

good times.

and play responsibly.
