I spent my Monday taking in my first ever cricket match. INDIA vs. PAKISTAN!!. The biggest rivals these two countries have ever known. And this is no college kid rivalry either...there were plenty of armed guards protecting the Pakistan fan section...which was few, but LOUD! There are tons of rules I still don't understand, but after spending the day, one lunch and one tea break later(those are built into the game, for the fans and players, because the matches last 8 hours, and sometimes 5 days of 8 hour days, like this one did), I came away a fan of the sport. I have tried my hand at bowling and batting before and NEITHER is easy...nor is catching that REALLY hard ball with your bare hands as it flies at you at warp speed. Cricket is cool.


The Indian fans were awesome!

Me and Mandy got our faces painted  It was Fun times to be a fan again.
