Special personal match day memories/experie

Reason why I ask, is because I just found a saved video on my ‘digi cam’ from the game against Arsenal in October 2010.

Sitting from the corner of the Shed, it starts just after Drogba scores and to see him run towards my direction and do his Michael Jackson pirouette on the corner flag was magnificent. Classic! You can even hear him scream.

Pity I was just 2 rows too high and out of shot from the TV cameras when it happened.

Anyone got their own experiences to share?

The 3-2 home win to knock Barca out of the CL, just so many highs and lows packed in to that game. 3-0 up in 20 minutes, then they pulled two back (pen and that Samba goal from Ronaldinho). Thought we were cruising, then the prospect of going out. Then JT got the late winner. Just an amazing game to be at.

Meeting Sean Lock at the subway in MarinePlatz Munich, prior to the CL final in Munich. Had a litlle chat with him and he was bigging up Frank for the evening, he was as excited as anyof us and I have him on video attempting to sing Carefree with us, unfortunately at this stage one of my mates who was a bit star struck was hannging off him and proving a little off putting in his attempt to keep up with the rest of us.

Lucky you. Would have loved to seen that game live, especially Ronaldinho do some magic while Chelsea still come out on top.

We were had to wait for about three full subway trains to come and go before we got one to the ground, the subway struggled that night.

And you are probably one of the luckiest sods on 606 to have been there. Great stuff.

I said to my son that night how lucky he was to be there and tried to convey to him how much me and my mates had dreamt of nights like this, that was a special night, even though I have seen many before and since, it stll sticks out.

Gate 11, I know that but it isn't entirley luck, I have put in the holurs. Not all my mates got tickets and I felt guity, but they remnded me that I did the games to earn that ticket, which is true but I still felt bad for those that didn't get one.

Agree, but the way I portray luck in that circumstance is not how you go the tickets and what you had to do to get there.

Its simply the fact at what you got to experience first hand.

Yeah true but I know one fan that got a ticket out there at face value, I also know another that paid 2,000 euros (he lives in Denmark) for his and he sat two rows in fron of me in the £59.00 seats. Some got lucky.
