Stadium Tour- CenturyLink Field

Fun fact: Joel and I have yet to go to a soccer game together.  The closest we came was on our Minneapolis trip for the Red Sox series in 2016, but we ended up opting for a nice dinner instead (which after a day of getting roasted in the beating sun was definitely the right choice).  It’s not that we dislike soccer, per se.  In fact, some of our favorite memories of sitting down for a game in a sports bar have been during World Cup or La Liga games.  But I’ve found that soccer fans are a different breed of sports fans that Joel and I just don’t relate to much.  First off, they’re probably going to be mad I’m calling it soccer instead of football, but football to us has touchdowns, not goals.  Second, most soccer fans we’ve met are only soccer fans.  They don’t really care much at all about any other sport.  Granted, there are folks who fall into that boat for every sport, but by and large, when we meet a fan at a basketball game, they’re also baseball fans.  Or folks sitting next to us at hockey games also closely follow their city’s football team.  And clearly, we follow all of the above.
