I'm a Fan of Sporting

Last night was the inaugural Kansas City Sporting home game at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park. Let's not get into how weird the verb-name of the team is, okay? All you need to know is that I'm a .333 season ticket holder, so I'll go to a third of the games (if you want to go with me, I have two extra tickets, just lemme know).

We didn't win last night. And much chagrin to many anti-soccer fans, neither team lost. Yes, matches can end in a tie. Deal with it.

I must say that the atmosphere was amazing and the arena itself is spectacular. And it'll only get better as soon as Google Fiber opens its hub UNDER THE ARENA (I believe that's an unconfirmed rumor, NOT started by me).

At any rate, I'm excited about my summer of soccer games that was kicked off last night. And so was the short-rock sitting next to us. That, my friends, is how you raise a soccer fan.
