well, first month of summer break, really
mid june to mid july
europe, baby :D
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:24 PM
!
hellllll yeah
Whereabouts?
Xerxos - Today at 7:25 PM
we're kinda going to play it by ear once we're there
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:25 PM
you should totally gatecrash on a euro Nuzlocker or two
Xerxos - Today at 7:25 PM
it'll mostly be my cousin and I going places on our own and meeting up with the rest of the group (grandparents, brother, other cousin) in certain spots
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:26 PM
Annoying that it's June/July otherwise I'd say "catch a match"
wait!
go to the EUROS
Xerxos - Today at 7:26 PM
oh man
if we can get tickets then by all means
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:27 PM
just pick a little-noticed group stage game or something
lesser-noticed maybe
more teams means more games means a higher supply of tickets
Xerxos - Today at 7:28 PM
maybe I could try for poland
see lewandowski in action
he's one of my favorite players in the game right now
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:31 PM
Their group-stage setup's going to mean great atmospheres but probably hotly-desired tickets
After they open against Northern Ireland on the 12th of June they play Germany AND Ukraine
derby days
Xerxos - Today at 7:32 PM
ohhh shit
poland v germany
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:34 PM
yup
AND IT'S AT THE STADE DE FRANCE ARE YOU KIDDING ME
two birds, one stone
obligatory tourist visit + Germany vs Poland?
what day are you getting to Europe anyway
Xerxos - Today at 7:36 PM
something like the 18th
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:37 PM
fuck
it's on the 16th :c
you realistically have the last matchday of each of the six groups unless you want to try for knockout stage tix
Xerxos - Today at 7:39 PM
well, we're spending a week or so in sweden at first
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:39 PM
oh, so you're getting to Sweden on the 18th?
or are you getting to Sweden on like the 11th and then going from there a week later
Xerxos - Today at 7:40 PM
flying into Milan on the 18th, then going to Sweden soon after
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:40 PM
oh I see
yeah you'll have to aim for knockout stage then
the final is on July 10th, for reference
Xerxos - Today at 7:41 PM
hmm
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:42 PM
On the bright side, I bet finding a bar to watch Sweden vs. Belgium at and then chilling with the Sweden fans for the rest of the night would be a pretty rad experience
22nd of June, last matchday of group E
Xerxos - Today at 7:43 PM
yeah, that'd be pretty cool
the people we're staying with are big soccer fans
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:43 PM
perfect
Xerxos - Today at 7:43 PM
and I do have an Ibra jersey in my closet :)
JL_muserwolves - Today at 7:43 PM
that's that sorted, then
I wonder how much tix would be for the knockout stages
