Pie Nite & More - Stories of a Big Loud Family

 We were 'packed' in with about a thousand fans - Bothell HS pulling in 3 times that for playoff games! We cheered, heard them call the game in Italian which was funny, refer to passes & runs as 'bello' & of course sat with drunken fools - but what drove Jason INSANE were the penalty flags- he kept yelling - 'it's not soccer ref!' not that anyone understood him. We're talking a flag every freakn' play!  The scores were high, since there wasn't much of a defense which kept it fun to see a touchdown every few downs. 

It was nice to see something familiar that reminded us of the States, but all in all it was pretty much unwatchable - we made the best of it - knowing it will be a long time before we see football live again! We sat on both sides of the field & cheered for both teams! I just kept saying - "dreams really do come true, you always said you wanted, just once, to go to the super bowl! - here we are baby, here we are!"

Only in Italy can you sit at the game, eating prosciutto & aged pecorino on a flat bread piadine!
