Dan found us fairly cheap tickets, so we figured we would go to see a football game while we were here. The stadium for Arsenal was actually just down the road from where we used to live, so we went over early and dropped by our neighbors house to see Lisa, Lily and Terry. Lisa cooked a really nice supper for us and we got to visit for a little bit before walking down to the stadium.
Unfortunately, it was starting to get cold, but we figured we could brave it to see a game. We met up with Dan, Rebecca and Andrew in front of the stadium and found our seats.

Our seats were pretty good and gave us a view of the entire field. The game was more fun than we expected, not being huge soccer fans ourselves. But the crowd was into it, and the Arsenal were really good, beating the visiting team Sheffield United by 6 to 0.
