if you hate tottenham. STAND UP.

As the end of the semester drew near, I frantically began ticking things off my "London Bucket list". I had to make it to a football match (soccer game to all Americans reading). So I bought the cheapest tickets I could find and headed to Stamford Bridge stadium, home to the Chelsea Football Club. They were playing against Apoel FC. I have to say it was one of the most lively sporting events I have ever been to. Our view of the game was slightly obstructed by the overhang of the level of seats above us, but that didn't matter. In fact, it was kind of helpful as the overhang kept us dry when it started to rain! But to be honest, the real action I was paying attention to was in my section! Being the cheap seats, it was rather rowdy. Everyone stood up the whole time, and there were constant chants and cheers. Cheers about Chelsea, chants about certain players, drinking songs, even cheers bashing Tottenham, Chelsea's biggest rival- who they weren't even playing! The whole atmosphere was fun, and even though Chelsea and Apoel tied, I still had a great time! Below are some pictures from the game- in case you didn't know, Chelsea is the blue team!
