So apparently there are other sports than baseball, basketball and football- there is FUTBOL. In the states we know of this slightly popular sport as Soccer. And in Portland, they are only 1 in 3 on the other sports so futbol reigns supreme. Todd treated me to my first Portland Timbers game where we participated in chanting, beer-drinking and nacho-cheese eating- overall not too different than any other sports game I've attended.
The fancy JELD-WEN field!
The infamous Timbers Army. They are contained within two large sections in the back of the stadium. The army traditionally arrives almost 2 hours before the game starts...and continues their chanting throughout the night. When you arrive they give you a list of over 10 different chants which are lead by chant leaders in the front of the sections.
The man with the hat the is the mascot Timber Joey.
