Sound off for soccer…

Karen got tickets to the debut match of the Seattle Sounders return to MLS (Major League Soccer) at the Qwest Stadium (thanks, Scott!).

P3190047

It was a glitzy affair, with appearances from the Governor, comedian Drew Carey – but not major signing Freddie Ljungberg. We were in the all-inclusive zone and got all the nachos, pretzels and fizzy drinks we could stomach (not a huge amount, but a nice idea).

P3190048

Everyone had a brand new lime green Sounders scarf and the funniest thing was the fireworks and glitter bombs that went off whenever Seattle scored a goal. By the time we hammered the New York Red Bulls 3-0, the pitch looked like a nightclub…
