Tianjin Taida!

On Saturday we went to a pro soccer game, our city's team, Tianjin Taida, played Tsingtao's team, the Ultras. At first we sat in our assigned section, which was back behind this big section of cheering fans who had flags and matching jerseys and everything. Then the 15 of us Americans that were there decided to start our own cheer...so we sang the "Ole Ole Oleeeeeeee" cheer and waved our Tianjin scarves...and all the Chinese fans loved it! They turned around and joined in! Then they invited us to come stand and cheer with them! And as we were cheering they started taking lots of pictures, and since they wanted us to look like real fans in the pictures, they gave us free jerseys!! It was all such a surprise, they were so friendly and welcomed us right in. Sports fan sections are universal =]
