Go Sounders!

Opening night for the new Sounders. We are excited to be season ticket holders for our new MLS team. We won our first game 3-0! Angela and Shawn texted us during the game to see if we were there. They will have to come and visit us and come to a game with us.
Our first day tickets were attached to Sounder Scarfs. It was fun to see everyone wearing them. Our seats turned out pretty good. Only 11 rows back from the front. Everyone seams nice around us. We stood up most of the game. I hope that will not be the norm. I think everyone was very excited about the game so they stood up the whole time. It was exciting to see three goals!

Drew Carrey is a part owner of the team. This is as close as I could get to him. Bummers. Maybe in the future we will meet him at a game. You never know! :-)
We all had a great time! They sold 22,000 season tickets for the season. That is the most season tickets sold in the league. Pretty good for the first season. There were 33,000 people at the game. We left the house a little later than we wanted. The parking was sold out at our usual places. We had to park on the other side of Safeco field. We were prepared for rain, so it did not rain. Yeah! But we made it just in time for the opening ceremonies.
