Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night, nor the winds...will stay us from cheering for our favorite team!
Yes, our family went to see LA Galaxy play Real Salt Lake Saturday night. The game was sold out and the stadium was filled to the brim with 20500+ screaming fans. Five of those fans were sitting by me, dressed more for a day on the slopes than a soccer game.
The weather was on the chilly side: 38 degrees Fahrenheit to be exact, with the wind and rain coming in at a nice angle to hit our faces. Don't worry. By the half, all of us were wearing ponchos. Enoch was the last to put his on because it covered up his jersey and his fauxhawk. 
Real really pulled everything off for us. They scored their first goal within the first three minutes of the game and never stopped until they had a total of four. Enoch cheered for his favorite players: Espindola, Morales, and Grabavoy. I cheered for the best goalkeeper in the MLS. One Nick Rimando. He was absolutely flawless. 
And yes, it was a dream come true for Enoch and me. We got to see David Beckham play for 85 minutes! He didn't make a goal, but did assist Angel who made the only goal LA Galaxy got the entire game.
Yep, final score: Real Salt Lake 4: LA Galaxy 1
A great start to a great soccer season!
