Ya, the concessions were absolutely brutal. Managed to grab a bottle of water before the game and it "only" took me about 20 minutes. Can't even imagine what the lineup was like at halftime
From a supporters point of view, it's utterly frustrating to be outchanted by the visiting team's supporters. The Voyageurs couldn't even get supporters in section FF to chant along, even when trying hockey chants. At the end of the game, security actually asked us to sit down due to complaints from other fans. I guess supporters are just considered drunk jagoffs to most (that's a quote from this board specifically). /rant
As for the game itself, Canada was lucky to come away with the victory. The play in the final third was largely uninspiring and combining that with China parking the bus, not much to talk about event wise. The penalty call was so-so, not sure if it really was a penalty. But hey, after being on the wrong end of calls so many times I'll take it!
I left after the Canada game because my head was throbbing from the bus ride, the march, and the sun / lack of water. But it was a great experience.
Also, not a bad view eh?
