Seattle Day 1 - Sunday
The jet lag was pretty rough.... I still find myself waking up at wierd hours of the night and checking the time. I also have a lot on my mind at the moment, and am looking forward to the conference which kicks off in 1 hour.
This blog post is about yesterday though. I managed to watch the Seattle Seahawks play the Philidelphia Eagles, ... the "Battle of the Birds". American football has always made more sense than rugby to me.You can tackle whoever the hell you please and you can throw the ball in any direction.... although I feel the game doesn't flow as well as rugby.
Strange and way out experiences so far include:
- The guy next to me at the football game getting chucked out of the stadium for gyrating his hips at the local supporters and pissing off the woman behind him. The "sprinkler routine" he performed every time the eagles scored was classic.
- The guys I met yesterday were cool. I got to chat with them and taste some of the local beverages.
