Soccer in Nashville

The Nashville Soccer Club (NSC) is coming to our town next March! Daniel is so excited. This weekend, however, the ICC tournament chose Nashville as their venue. Daniel got tickets awhile back and has been stoked about this day. We headed downtown, found some parking and walked to the stadium.

I was looking forward to it by this point as well, but unfortunately, I could've had a better time. I couldn't bring my purse in so I had to go wait in line and pay for a locker before heading back in to watch the game. We already had one goal when I got there. I sat down for a few minutes before getting up for drinks. The kids were dying of thirst and Daniel told them we couldn't get up for drinks until I got there. I sat back down and watched the game for a few minutes at a time between helping the kids with their drinks and keeping Jake & Allie from jumping around and hurting themselves. Then Daniel got up at the half for more drinks (it was really hot, we were in direct sunlight). I already knew I was going to leave a few mins early so I could beat the lines to get my purse so when they called a cooling break for the players about 8-10 mins before end, we went ahead and left. On our walk back to the car I could see the scoreboard and we got another goal.

All in all, it was a neat experience and Daniel was so excited about having professional soccer in Nashville and seeing the game with his family that I was happy. But I don't think I personally got my money's worth, loll. I look forward to other games where I'll be better prepared and maybe we don't take all the kids. :)
