This dude made my week - I cannot stress this enough. Today my new bro /u/chubert straight up laced me with two soccer books, a scarf from his home club (MLS champs Sportig KC) a hilarious letter and 2 tickets to see my beloved DC UNITED take on my adoptive hometown's side, Houston Dynamo in frankly, baller seats I'd never pretend I could afford.

This is why I love the beautiful game especially being an American. It seems to me that other American soccer supporters relate to one another in ways I can't imagine the rest of the world can. I get that we all love our National sides but American's really just want to help grow the sport (and drink some beer). I don't know what its' like to be a supporter from a proper football country, but if it's really more fun than being one from here then, well, maybe I do have a reason to envy them because this feeling of comrodery with someone i've never met is what I think soccer is all about.

Anyway, for the rest of the night I'll be Sporting KC.

Thanks Dave and thanks reddit.
