Soccer? Yes, Please!

Well, not to quote Charlieissocoollike or anything, but I "have just had the almost imponderable joy of watching..." a professional soccer match!! Yesterday, at 12:30, Jean-Yves, two family friends and I took off for Rennes where we then watched the Rennes vs. Cours soccer match.

Let's just say it was amazing. This was my very first professional soccer match, and the fact that it was in France blew my mind! The pitch was giant...

And the game was quite a spectacle! Rennes won 3 to 0 in a landslide, and let's just say that the crowd was happy. By happy, I mean that the entire stadium did the wave! I also enjoyed what is the Fench equivalent of game day brats: the gallette saucisse. It's funny, while we Wisconsinites also partake in a meat+carbs food combo, the French version is just so elegant... Although, while I did relish the delectable treat, I must say I missed the toasted bun that comes with a good Cheesehead brat!
