White Caps

Went to my very first soccer game at BC Place: White Caps vs. New England. Interesting fact: white caps represents the snow caps on our mountains and New England team is from Boston. I never knew. We started off with finding parking which is very difficult in downtown vancouver but we eventually found parking. Afterwards we grabbed some snack and drinks before the game started. We had great seats complimentary from bf's cousin's season passes. The game started off with the anthem for the USA and Canada. I got a little bit emotional because the little girl who sang did a very good job. There was so much passion and love when she sang each anthem. Afterwards there was a moment of silence for the Orlando shooting that happened 2 weeks ago. That was also very emotional for me. Maybe I was just having an emotional day. Who knows. After that the game started. Interesting chants when the goalie from either ends kicks the ball. Overall, the game was quite slow not much action and New England won 2:1. The audience on our end was very quiet while the opposite end was quite rowdy. Overall, a great experience for those who's never experienced the soccer culture. I would definitely go again to support our team. Go Whiiiiitteee Caps!
