It’s been a soccer heavy weekend. Saturday we went to watch Hollywood United play in a charity match. Not stellar quality soccer, but it’s a good time. My favorite celebrity player, Anthony LaPaglia, was there. Got a pix with him! Yay!
I don’t typically bug celebs for photos or autographs, but I really like this guy.
Afterwards, we went to the Yardhouse in LB for drinks. Lots of NY Red Bulls fans and MLS fans in general were there, as the MLS Cup is this weekend. Met the authors of a couple of awesome soccer related blogs, du Nord and The Offside Rules. They’re a couple of super nice guys. I always feel a little awed by people who are so clearly more clever than myself.
Sunday was the MLS Cup. We didn’t care about either team, really. We only went because it was being held at our home stadium. Afterwards, the Riot Squad and a bunch of NY fans adjourned to the park for beer, tacos, and bicycle jousting. When it became dark out, the party was broken up by the cops. Good times!
