DC United vs. Seattle Sounders











Devin had a Gettysburg trip to go on with his class and he had a 20 minute brief, he was gone all day and didn’t get back until 6:30 PM at night, the game was in DC and started at 7:30. Well, we got there at 7:45 but the tolls took our money and we didn’t have the 15$ to pay for parking outside of the ghetto. We drove to tons of ATMs and they were all broken, we went to a store that the worker said they do cash back but when we got to the front of the 10 minute line we bought a baseball and they said sorry no cash back. So we finally found an ATM way later, Devin was pretty scared getting out of the car in the crummy neighborhood but we finally had the money in hand and then went to park, by this time the game was so far in that parking was free. We parked and ran to the game, it was half time. The game was at 0-0 which was good because the 2nd half was GREAT. I love Keller, he is so fun to watch. Seattle ended up winning 2-1 and the goal made by DC United was LAME, Keller’s teammates totally screwed him over, they botched the whole thing for him. The goalie on DC’s side got red carded and thrown out of the game, it was very entertaining. The field is horrible though, so old and rugged. Salt Lakes field is gold plated in comparison.
