Columbus Crew - We Love Ya!

I'd never been to a Columbus Crew game before. Tyler's been to lots and lots and has invited me to go a number of times, but I never went along. When he was in town last weekend for the Color Run I suggested he stay in town for all of Saturday and go to the Jazz and Rib Fest with me and he said he would if I went to the Crew game with him. Deal.

Well, we didn't end up going to the Jazz and Rib Fest. We met the Reuter family at the North Market instead (he did eat ribs!) but we did go to the Crew game.

It was my first Crew game and also my first soccer game ever where Tyler was not on the field and in the bleachers beside me! Crazy huh? I missed seeing him out there on the field.

First Columbus Crew game and my professional sporting event for my 101 in 1001 days challenge.

We sat in the rowdy section, also known as the Nordecke.

My favorite brother.

I wish Ohio State had smoke come up out of their seats!

There were lots of homemade banners, but at least they were neat and well designed!

They sang and chanted the. entire. game. Which was nice!

Columbus' city logo.

"We" won!

Players coming over to the fans after the game.

I tried to meet the players after the game, but Tyler said they're all married. :(

Thanks bro for the ticket!

The section we sat it got pretty rowdy and it was actually alot of fun. I always wanted to be in an awesome pep section and I definitely was in a section full of diehard Crew fans. So I will definitely go back if he has extra tickets in the future!

Next time I'll need some official Crew gear to wear, like this Homage shirt. ;)
