GOAL!!!!!!!!!


Jared and I had the opportunity to attend a semi-pro soccer game here in Antigua. It was hilarious for several reasons. First, the field was surrounded by fencing and topped with barbed wire. Second, the entire crowd was very intense (let’s just say we are glad we don’t every word in Spanish!) throughout the entire game. Third, every time a player “got injured” (it was usually a FAKE OUT) firemen would run onto the field with a stretcher and attempt to carry the man to the side. It was strange how quickly all the players would recover after needing a stretcher. Finally, a little girl around the age of two was doing laps around the outside of the field on a tricycle the entire time. Oh yeah, the game ended in a tie 2-2.
