"Today I was watching for the first time live a football game: Washington Redskins x Seattle Seahawks (NFL champions) .It was an incredible experience. In addition to knowing more about a sport that did not have much contact, was very interesting to see the organization of the show since the arrival of fans for the animation inside the stadium, and also how can two different twisted are sitting side by side on chairs with no problem or confusion.
The stadium is huge and supports 91,000 people. I was quite full. Americans are really passionate about football and cheer a lot for your team. The game is a party entitled to band and cheerleaders. I went to the game together with other group members who are doing the exchange, and knowledge of some of the sport was instrumental in helping me understand the movements taking place in the field.
Certainly, it was a lesson in how to organize a major sporting event, with a great structure, providing entertainment for everyone at the scene. I really enjoyed the experience and, although not rooting for any particular club, left the game very happy to have experienced a bit of American culture and to learn more about major sporting events.
