Chelsea Football! Aug 14

What a sweet treat this was! Seems BearingPoint has season tickets to Chelsea football matches (soccer). Brian somehow acquired the tickets for the Birgmingham City game and invited us girls. What a fantastic time!

I can't say I ever considered myself a soccer fan before, but this match was truly a blast! What energy! Cheering, shouting, dancing... almost like being back at Penn State. We just smiled ear to ear with glee. You'd think we'd been Chelsea fans forever b/c with each score, we'd leap from our seat to cheer and with each miss, huge growns of disappointment. Its a quick moving game. Lots of action. These guys are sooooo good!

In the end it was Chelsea to win it. Wow what a day. We didn't want to leave the grounds as the partying went on... but we head back into the City to enjoy the rest of the evening. It was a fantastic opportunity and truly British!
