No! I love catching Arsenal references in media. If anyone watched Law and Order UK, there was an episode where Ron Atkinson's character is going through his partner's (played by Jamie Baumer) flat and there is an Arsenal coffee mug very prominently sitting out. It just jazzes me to see that. No idea why. Probably because if soccer is mentioned at all on American TV it is being derided. But here is my club just ingrained into a show I watch. Love that.
I know I am late for this party about tickets but can I just add that the away fans at the Grove do have pretty damn good seats. They literally have 1st tier seats that are very close to the pitch. For 62 quid I would jump at that. Hell my tickets for a middle tier seat at the Meadowlands was $400.00 when Brazil played Argentina last June.
Arsenal team: Szczesny, Sagna,Vermaelen, Koscielny, Gibbs, Diaby,Wilshere, Cazorla, Oxlade-Chamberlain,Podolski, Walcott #AFCvMCFC Diaby ♥
Would it make it better if I said that I did not pay for the tickets and that my father got it via work and only had to pay $100 each. Tickets were also expensive due to late purchase.
I remember my first Arsenal game. When everyone was shouting "RED ARMY! RED ARMY! RED ARMY!" There I was shouting "DIABY! DIABY! DIABY!".
