Day 184...Futbol Fever



FUTBOL FEVER

In a year of the World Cup and growing interest of the sport of soccer in the United States, during the past few weeks you can see it everywhere...a fever for the most popular game in the world!

Soccer fans are some of the most fun fans you will find.  They dress up crazy, shout wild cheers, and to be in the crowd among them you can often find yourself getting caught up in it all.  

This shot is being posted a day late because I had fallen a little behind.  But it was taken at the National Sports Center in a game between the Minnesota United (semi pro) soccer team versus the U21 Mexico National team.  I'm pretty sure the crowd was about 50% Mexican that night, and it was a riot!  The fans were animated, dressed in great Mexican fan wear, and just fun to observe!


The young ones are usually the people who are the least shy and they love getting dressed up for anything.  And you certainly don't have to be from the home country to takes sides with them....this guy just wanted to party with the fans who were the most fun!!!
