NSC - Games 15 & 16

We went to a couple of Nashville Soccer Club games last week.

The first game was on Tuesday (9/18).  Carter had a baseball game that night at 6 pm (his games last 90 minutes) and the NSC game started at 7:30 pm.  So Brian took the other boys on time and I took Carter late after his game was over.

Some of our friends were sitting several rows behind us and our boys were excited to hang with their boys.  They worked really hard to get on the Jumbotron during halftime.

Waiting ...


"Why won't they put us on?" ...


Finally! ...


Our friends have four boys.  Their oldest three now have the same NSC shirts as Carter and Rylan so they all match.



Carter FINALLY caught a shirt (Rylan had caught two and Gray one this season already).  But our friends' youngest was upset he didn't get one and Carter gave his shirt to him.  Sweet boy :)


NSC ended up losing 2-1 to the Tampa Bay Rowdies that night.  Their name is very fitting.  It was a rough game but at least this time Nashville didn't end up with several injured players (which is what happened when they played at Tampa Bay).

The second game we went to last week was on Saturday night (9/22).  It rained the entire game and since only about 2,000 people showed up, we were able to sit under the 200 level seats and stay dry.  We still essentially had front row seats, just a little higher up.


It poured a lot in the first half.  We lucked out with only sprinkles though when talking to and from the stadium.


Nashville just can't get a win lately.  They tied 1-1 against the Charleston Battery.  They played at Atlanta United II tonight.  Historically they aren't great on the road but they really need a win to have a chance at the playoffs.
