Aller Bordeaux!


         I have never ever in my life been as cold as I was when I went to this football game.  My friends and I went to the Bordeaux-Nice match du foot at the stadium in Bordeaux and it was pretty fun.  We had seats very close to the field and so for the first half we were almost directly behind the goal for les Girondins (the Bordeaux team).  It was fun seeing all of the rowdy fans, but security definitely kept things under wraps.  They had security, police, riot control, everything they might need for any reason.  I am pretty sure a terrorist threat could have been issued at the stadium and we still would have been safe.  It got so cold though, I am pretty sure it got to be between –5 and 0 degrees Celsius at the stadium, my body did not understand what was going on.  We were all wearing so many layers, and yet we couldn’t feel our feet the entire half hour it took to get back home.  Fortunately the Girondins won 2-0 so, it mostly made up for it.  It was definitely worth the experience!
