Fussball and Festival

We went to a Professional Soccer game! The guy that owns Red Bull lives right outside of Salzburg and owns the Fussball (soccer) and Ice Hockey teams, so we rooted for the Salzburg Bulls. Their colors: red and white. The game was a blast! There was rowdy a section that was standing up and cheering in German the whole time. The opposing teams fans were sitting behind a net and we found out later that it was because at a previous game fireworks had been shot off by the opposing fans.

Today is St. Rupirts Day. It was a holiday for all of the kids and there is a big festival going on. It reminds me a little bit of the Green Corn Festival back in the day when there were a lot of rides and more than a few booths.
