This was my first Timbers match experience, and I must say that being in general admission with the Timbers Army looks way more fun than seats on the sidelines. We get to stand the whole time, and yell fun chants without people looking at us weird. Here's a small snippet of what cheering was like:
It was a blast and I'd like to go again. Thanks David for inviting me.
Here I am, enjoying myself. :) |
