RSL and The Spaghetti Factory

I am officially addicted to major league soccer. I have always liked soccer and played soccer until I was in high school when I had to choose if I wanted to play soccer or volleyball and I chose volleyball. Since I am starting school I had to change my work schedule so I work every Saturday so my friends from work and I decided that we should do something before school started and we would all be too busy to hangout. We usually just hangout and watch Chuck at someone's house but this time we decided to invite our husbands since they all have a lot in common and since we all like soccer we decided that it would be fun to go to a RSL game. I also convinced them to go the The Spaghetti Factory since its my favorite restaurant and we were going to be in Salt Lake for the game. We decided to ride Frontrunner to Salt Lake since we would have had to take two car otherwise. It took a little longer to get there because we rode frontrunner but it was definitely fun riding together. I was a little nervous because I was in charge of knowing which train to get on at each stop and to make sure that we made it the game on time but everything worked out well. I was a little disappointed with our meal at first they tried sticking us in a little booth where we could hardly move our arms so we asked to move and the waitress who's table we were originally sitting at kept giving us dirty looks the whole time we were eating. Then our waiter seemed to be rushing us a little bit I was only half done with my food when he asked what type of ice cream we wanted and brought us our checks. I am going to eat at the spaghetti factory again tomorrow so hopefully it will be a better experience. The train on the way to the soccer game was really crowded and I got separated from everyone I was trapped in the corner and when I was finally able to make it to where everyone else was sitting my friend Nicole's husband cheered for me. Our seats at the soccer game were right behind the goal and it was awesome we could see the action really well. We were all really into the game and at one point one of our players got past the goalie with the ball and had a chance to shoot on the open goal and somehow during all the excitement Sarah hit me and smacked her knee on the chair in front of her apparently she is very dangerous to watch a soccer game with. I hope that someday soon I can have season tickets because MLS is officially my new favorite sport to watch. Riding trax to the game Sarah wasn't trying to hide she was trying to lean into the pictureAdam on the train doesn't he look thrilled?

Hey, I am you friend! Why didn't I get invited to the game and how come Adam didn't wear his Jersey?
