Saturday night was the soccer game between Sevilla and Real Betís, the two teams in Sevilla. It started at 10pm, but people were gathering around the city streets as early as five in the afternoon, adorned in their favorite team's colors, to get pumped up!
A few of us decided to get a sense of the fútbol craze by going to see the game in a nearby bar. It was crowded with people gathered around the TV drinking beers and eating tapas. Lots of cheering and groaning from all the fans in the bar. Despite the fact that Sevilla is supposedly the better team, they ended up tying 1-1! Not sure which side I am for quite yet, but we'll see if I develop a partiality as time goes on :P
