Cote D'Ivoire Comes to PE

Cote D'Ivoire was here!!!  I saw Salomon Kalou, 3 inches from me. 

The game tied 1-1 and Kalou only came on as a second half sub, but other than this it was awesome!!!  Met Warren and Greg at a bar down the road from the stadium for some pre-game drinks.  Jess walked over really early with me to watch the warm-ups.  I felt like a little kid.  It was so exciting!



Danny bought tickets for all the City Lads Ladies so they were all there too.  Enjoyed some great soccer (#12 is INSANE) and after the game got up real close to Salomon.  He came up to the stands, but only took one picture with a fan.  So I took a picture of him.
