Getcher freak on!

I've never been much of a sports fan, but I think since being here, I've attended/watched more sporting events than I have in my entire life. First, there was the Aussie Cup Tennis Finals on the steps of the Opera House, then the Rugby League match and finally last night I gave in to soccer (aka football in England). But I have a good excuse: I was out with Sarah, who is from Liverpool, and her team was playing against West Ham United. She was really into it and every bar we went to had the game on so there was no avoiding it really. Now, you know I'll always side with the Scousers 'cause, well, The Beatles (duh). But I wasn't prepared for how much I'd get into the game (of course I was fuelled by a few drinks). Eventually the Liverpudlians won and everyone was shouting and cheering and jumping up and down, hugging each other...including me! Far out!
