Real Salt Lake

Spencer's boss is part of the Real Salt lake Lions 100 club and he invited us to a game a few weeks ago. It was a blast! Neither of us had every been to a professional soccer game other than high school and college and were really excited to go. It consisted of free dinner before the game, more food at half time and even more food afterword. Plus front row seats in the center of the field. It felt like we were royalty! It was way nice. This is how excited we were about the game!
This is Spencer and his boss Randy who was generous enough to let us "poor college students" enjoy a night of high class entertainment.
The game was really exciting Salt lake won the game 3-0 which meant we got to see three incredible shots! It was against Toronto and I have never realized how aggressive the game of soccer is! Maybe it was just the fact that we were so close to the players that we got to see everything, but it was pretty intense.

Then after the game we got to go get autographs and meet some of the players. We felt like little twelve year old's asking for their autographs and pictures but we still did it and just laughed about it.


I think the highlight of the night happened after the game was over. We were walking up the tunnel headed to the room to wait to get autographs and we happened to walk through the tunnel the same time as Kyle Beckerman who was headed to the locker room to shower. We had a quick conversation about the game and off he went. It was pretty cool, especially the fact that he has recently been called up to play with the national US team. This is him being subbed out near the end of the game.

We had a great time and love doing things that our out of the ordinary. Maybe when we are filthy rich it won't be so out of the ordinary but we'll see! :)
