Footy!

Today I went with Thomas (my flatmate), Robin and Ben to the ANZAC day Australian Football League game at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, where we saw Collingwood (Magpies) battle it out with Essenden (Bombers). Collingwood eventually won 12.23 (95) to 11.13 (79).

This has been my first experience of going to a sports event and it was quite fun. While it is not something I’d be likely to do more than once a year, it was quite an experience. Being part of a 90,000 strong crowd and joining in the chants and calls was fun ;-)

Funnily enough this has been the first sports game I watched more than ten minutes of (even on TV) as I’m not into spectator sports at all…
