    I take like me most of you are also from the USA. Have any of you attended a match at Juventus stadium yet? I'm going to visit my family in Italy and centered the whole trip really around going to the Juve/Inter match next month. Money is not an issue however there are other issues.

    1) almost impossible to buy tickets like we do here in advance. I'm from Philly, if I want to attend the the last phillies game of the 2016 season as soon as the tickets go on sale long before the season starts I can. However even on the Juventus website you can only purchase tickets for what seems like only a week in advance, this is not good considering I will already have booked a flight and a few days stay in a Torino hotel.

    2) Sure there are markets like our stubhub but I'm not sure how credible and reliable they are. I would hate to spend 200 euros on a bogus ticket. Then some of the seats mention resurved for Tessera Del tifosso card holders.

    3) the tifosso card is a whole nother problem. I'm not exactly sure if I'm able to get one not being an Italian citizen. Through my Juve membership it asked for my tax code (tix agency's also asked for VAT number which a non Italian citizen won't have) I just put my SS# and that seemed to work when I applied for the card. I went through the steps and paid 15 euros only to get emailed a 12 page form I need to fill out, in not totally fluent in Italian plus instead of emailing I gotta print it out and send by regular mail, if anyone is familiar with the Italian postal system this means I'd be lucky to attend the 2017 match between Juve and inter.

    Please somebody tell me there is an easier way to do this.
