I never thought of myself to be a soccer (or as they say here futbol) fan. But after going to my first futbol game, I do have to say that I quite enjoyed it!

We went to see the Chivas vs. Atlante game approximately 2 weeks ago. (Chivas, a very popular team from Guadalajara, and Atlante, a team from Mexico City). I had tons of fun! The energy in the stadium is unbelievable for sure!

I have also attended the famous 'Lucha Libre' matches here in Mexico. Essentially what it is, for those that don't know; it's Mexican wrestling. The really good wrestlers will wear masks. Very entertaining I must say. And the crowd really gets into it too!

Something I learned:
Don't sit at the front, especially if you are a girl. Thankfully, we didn't. But the crowd might start to pick on you and perhaps shout 'Beso! Beso! Beso!', implying that the girl kiss the wrestler.
