Leave the women and children at home though.....the fans are friggin' crazy!!! Everything I heard about Italian Calcio fans was true. I couldn't take my winter coat off to sport my Juventus jersey with fear of being in a fist fight and beaten on by 34,000 screaming Bologna fans!! They are truly insane!!! (Passionate though....I'll give them that). The only fans that I've seen that are as passionate and crazy are at a Montreal Canadians game - and that's like going to a day care in comparison to this ;) And no the suits at the Leafs games have nothing on Habs fans.
Being at the stadium was like having 34,000 referees and coaches at the same time....too funny!
Andrea Pirlo (number 21 in the Black & White Juventus jersey) is considered one of the all time best midfielders in Italian Football history. He is a true magician with the ball.
One photo is of Bologna's Curva with all the hard core fans, the other end has Juventus fans. Hearing the chants go back and forth was awesome. I was in the middle of all Bologna fans. Luckily I made friends with the people beside me and snuck in a quick pic at the end of the game ;)
The whole experience was incredible!!
P.S. Juve won 2-0......Forza Juve!!!
