Beckham.
I went to the New York Red Bulls vs. Los Angeles Galazy soccer match on Saturday with 66 thousand of my closest friends. For the end of the game I was in the middle of one of the New York fan sections. They cheered their asses off, but were also all flicking Beckham off, booing every time he touched the ball, trying to get pictures of him and singing a minute long song with the only lyric being "maricone" sung over and over again. (Spanish slang for a three letter slang word for homosexual...) Classy those New York football fans, but a great game, and great experience. I even overheard a couple of 60 year olds who had flown from London just for the game - sick! The pictures are a bit spotty since I'm holding some of the best back from the blog.
(Thanks to the b-day girl for the pass!)

OK. I'm adding this since I've been getting complaints from the ladies. Here's a crop from another shot...
