I DID IT! I landed a first row ticket to the Trinidad vs Paraguay game.
My luck changed when I met these guys in the train station in Manhiem (great group of football lovers) and was on the train to the game, I needed tickets, and just went along to see what I could do, The had an extra but it was 50% spoken for but the chance was good enough for me. It didn't work out, I was crushed I thought it was my last chance...just then I asked a random guy if he was selling tickets. First row!!! At ticket value €100. I was still a bit, so so on this it was too good to be true. I ran into a crew from winnipeg, (Shout out to DP) and we enjoyed the pre agme festivities. AT The gate my ticket would'nt scan! I was so close to tears, no joke I came so far for this and it was my last chance, I was sold a fake ticket. The person at the gate said oops...upside down. It scanned I gave him a huge HUG, as I enterd the stadium the cheers and chants got louder, I walked down the hall and enterd the stadim seating. Unbelevable, I'm still in shock.
The end result was not what we hoped for but the experiance was great, Trinidad gear is pretty much sold out in Germany, what is left is going for top dollar.
We partied the night away after in this wierd bar, they take your photo then give you a scan card and you buy your drinks with that and pay at the end...deadly.
I slept in a van....my clothes were at the station and that was the only other option than the street. I may be on my way home soon, I have some good offers for free tickets here but.....
I am off to catch another train here in KlÖn (Cologne) wicked palce, a must for traveling to Germany
Well I did it, I'm sooo wiped and I miss my bed.
Stay tuned....
I got in to a World cup Game!!!!!
