The football season has only been over for 5 minutes and people are already planning for the beginning of the next season. Football is like a way of life in the UK and people love to go to the game.
The beginning of the season is like a holiday and people will count down their days until the next time that they can see their favourite team play. They like to make the most of the first game of the season because they have been so long without the beautiful game.
If you are wondering what to do to make the first game of the season special, then read on for some ideas.
Meal
One of the best ways to make the day special is to book a meal at the stadium before the game starts. Some stadiums have package deals and they include the price of the meal with your match tickets.
Other teams will have their old players turn up at the meal and people can ask them questions. Then, they are free to watch the game through the glass at the restaurant, or they can go and take their seats in the stadium.
These meals are expensive but it will be something that you only do once a year, and they are a brilliant experience. People that have done these meals before have said that some of the actual players can be seen getting a snack before the game! Therefore, you could be crossing paths with the stars. You would remember that experience for the rest of your life!
Stadium Tour
If you don’t have a lot of money and sitting down for a meal is not for you then you should think about having a stadium tour. If you decide to do this then you should do the tour earlier in the day because they stop doing tours in time to get the stadium ready for the game.
This is something that you will remember forever and even though stadium tours can be expensive, they are worth the money. Some tours will even let you go in the player’s dressing room and out onto the pitch.
Chauffeur Arrival
If you want to make the game extra special, then you should think about having a chauffeur drive you to the game and pick you up. Some people only associate chauffeur services with airport transfers, but they actually provide a service for trips to sports events.
A chauffeur service will pick you up at home and drop you off as close to the stadium as they can get. Sometimes traffic will be too busy and they will drop you off a short walk from the stadium but that is not their fault.
The same can be said for the way home. They will arrange a place to pick you up as close to the stadium as you can get. You will have to pay a bit more than you would if you were getting the bus, but it will be worth it just to get to and from the game in style. And, you will only be doing it for the first game, to make it special.
If you have ever been to a football game, then you will know that sometimes, it is a nightmare to get home. The buses are packed and even if you walk part of the way home, you are looking at a couple of hours before you do get home. Having a chauffeur means that you don’t have to deal with the stress of getting home.
