Scotland Rugby Team

GO SCOTLAND!


Hey Ya'll!  So yesterday February 26, I went and saw the Scotland versus France Rugby game.  This was a match from the 6 nations.  The 6 nations teams that play for the cup are: Scotland, England, France, Italy, Whales, and Ireland.  Scotland played the best they have in years, or so said a fellow Scotland supporter.  It was really interesting because at our sporting events back in the states if the team you support was losing or got scored on you would generally curse, and be really upset.  This was not the case at this rugby game! Scotland supporters would just be quiet and even clap if France scored they were very cordial.  Everyone was dressed in their Scotland blues some completely covering their bodies in paint, too bad the streaker that was there wasn't completely painted when the police escorted him from the field!  Even though the weather was pretty cold, it was a good game to be able to see! France won 23 - 17 but it was very close!  Rugby is now my third favorite sport to watch (following soccer and ice hockey).
