Leeds United vs Arsenal @ Elland Road


Sunday was the day I had been waiting for all my life. Andy, Evan, Amy and I made our way out to Elland Road to see Leeds play Arsenal. Wow! What a day! We so easily got caught up in the emotion of the fans, the singing and chanting and devotion to their team. And then there was the football. A rough game, but with plenty of skill as well. Leeds went on to win 1-0 and the fans left happy. Not even pouring rain, darkness, and the cold could dampen our spirits on the walk home.
