Went to my first football game on the weekend to watch the qualifying 2014 world cup game, Montenegro vs. Ukraine.
Now, as someone who has only been to a Canadian soccer game, where the fans are as exciting as a spare tire, this definitely woke me up. With a stadium having a capacity of 12,000 people, whoever built this stadium decided that less entrances are better. GREAT IDEA. For 30 minutes, I was squished like a sardine in between every drunk football man. Which, as much as that may sound like a taste of heaven, it wasn’t. Did I want to be harassed, unable to move or even defend myself? OF COURSE. IT WAS MY ONLY INTENTION OF STANDING IN THAT LINE. Flares going off everywhere, riot police standing around like armed monkeys. And then, in the corner, a man, selling peanuts.
I appreciate and respect that football is an international sport which allows for basically anyone to play. But watching the fans at the game, was like watching 12,000 villagers. Ukrainian people were being attacked and pushed around, it was as though every idiot was at game.
WHY CAN’T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG.
enough I say!
anyways, moving forward, the rest of the weekend was spent at the beach eating cevapi, kajmak and bread.
I can feel the blood clots.
