That's what I was getting at, I figured with all that stuff happening in Italy, UEFA might actually be checking the IDs etc.
Maybe, but i doubt it. It's gotta be pretty tough to check 80,000 ID's in an hour. In Paris there were huge lines to get in, and they only scanned the ticket's barcode, and did a quick pat down check. I've had tickets with names on them a few times, and have never been asked for an ID. Does anyone know if they were checking at the World Cup? I think i remember that they weren't. Besides both tickets would have the same name on them, so half the people going in with UEFA tickets won't have ID that matches anyway.
I wasn't taken under arrest for not having proper idea. Gladly answering all your Champions League final jail related questions.
yes Billy it certainly wasn't for proper "idea"....... I kid, I kid....at least you didn't get your leg impaled on the fence like that guy that tried to sneak over the fence.......
So the lottery winners should be notified by Saturday. I've somehow lost my enthusiasm for the prospect of winning. Not that i was expecting Arsenal to be there, but i was hoping.
This also gives folks a chance to help out other supporters. If you win tickets there are Prem teams still alive in the competition. Each of them have deserving fans here on Big Soccer who might be in need of tickets for the final.
Congrats, If i had won tickets, i would have gone as long as ManUre or Chelski weren't playing. It would have been too much if i had to watch one of those teams lift the cup. Do you think you're gonna go? A trip to Greece in May would be a blast.
jeeze we could have used these "lucky tickets last year....... You ok today Judy? I needed some HC last night....settled for my "in the tradition" of Cuban rums........
I'm getting by - doesn't help sharing an office with a ManYoo fan. I decided best thing to cheer me up would be to plan a non-football(ish) holiday. I've got some spare leave now I've got no more European trips till pre season. Think we should have an end of season party and general Gooner gathering somewhere Stateside as I haven't been over the pond in a while.
Name the time and place and I'll be there. If Chavs or/and ManYoo get to the final I want to be out of the country so around the middle of May might be good.
Well, since you are the guest, where do you want to go? Anywhere you haven't been yet that you'd like to scratch off the list? Heck, you could fly back to Texas with me after the Chav match! Yahhhhooooooo!!!!!
Now you're talking - I could miss the Champions' victory parade here too, another event I really don't care to partake in.
