"In a Different Country"

If you are a regular reader of BigSoccer, you may have run into these excellent posts by BigSoccer poster and Reading FC fan, "RichardL" before.

The threads listed here are journal entries that Richard titled, "It's Like Being in a Different Country" and are about his travels to different cities and soccer matches all over the globe. He is an excellent writer: funny, witty, and descriptive and although some of these were posted more than a year ago and cover games he attended many years ago, I still go back and read them again from time to time.

If you're a MLS fan and jump straight to the Chicago Fire post, keep in mind that the game Richard attended was at Soldier Field way back in 2001.

All credit goes to RichardL for writing these excellent entries and making them available at BigSoccer.
