AFL- Australian Football League
Australia has it's own sport- Australian Rules Football. It is basically a mix of American Football, Rugby, Basketball, Soccer, and probably some other sports as well and it is played on an oval field. Today my friend Stacey and I went to see a game and it was so cool! It started off a little rough though... We got there and people were sitting in our seats so we sat in some empty seats. A little into the game a mom comes with her kids and I look at her and I say, "Oh sorry, someone was in our seats," obviously meaning we will move. Well apparently she didn't think we were going to move and she goes "Well I don't f***ing care if someone is in your seat, I paid for these and you guys need to get out." Woahh!! right? so then we got up and went to our seats and asked the people if they could move because they were in our seats and they said no! so we went and had a pow-wow about what to do and decided that we both were pretty upset with all these rude australians and we wanted our seats! so i took control and went and almost yelled at these people, telling them it was our only game in Australia, and we just wanted our seats. They told us to go sit in some empty seats and I told them that we paid for those seats and we didn't want to be kicked out of our seats again. They all wanted to sit together cuz they had a big group, but they gave us our seats and we sat down, but the whole game there was a lot of tension. At first they kept making comments to each other that they obviously wanted us to hear. I couldn't believe how rude they were to us! Anyway, we got over it and the game was so fun! It's a great sport, they sprint and jump and tackle and they are always moving, even the referees are constantly sprinting around. I took some videos to show you guys :)
