Ya Hoo!

On the way home from work the other night, Paul noticed that the subway to Gerland was packed… abnormally so. There were even these guys that they call “subway packers” at the stations… it is actually their job to get as many people as possible in the cars. Then he noticed that many people were wearing Olympic Lyonaise (OL) jerseys and their red-white-blue scarves. Then it clicked – he had heard something on the radio about a game with Real Madrid (who are the New York Yankees of European soccer – buying all the best players). OL has won the French championship for 3 years running. Needless to say, it was a big game.

AND LYON WON!
(I’m trying very hard to sound excited… can’t you tell?)
