You Catch It … You Keep It
By: David | April 1st, 2009Aspiring Goalkeepers get ready!
I have it on good authority that the FC Gold Pride are about to do something totally unique in the American soccer landscape:
HAVIN’ A BALL
FC Gold Pride is the only team in the US to allow fans to keep game balls that enter the stands during the match (this excludes on-field seating and warm-ups, sorry). If a ball that leaves the field of play ends up in your hands, it’s yours to keep.
That would be a pretty impressive souvenir, assuming you can out-muscle all of those other fans diving head-first like Hope Solo into a crowd, hoping to spike the ball clear to your awaiting siblings.
Before you dismiss this entirely out-of-hand … I asked straight-up if this was an April Fool’s Day joke being played on an innocent blogger, and was told straight-up that it was not.
… so maybe I’ll be bringing some goalie gloves to the Buck!
See you Sunday.
