Aalborg Pirates

Hi!

Last week I went to an ice hockey game in the Gigantium Isarena situated in the Aalborg’s suburb. The Aalborg’s team is named “Aalborg Pirates” and the players wear red hockey jerseys. For this game, Aalborg fought against Sonderjyske, one of the strongest hockey team in the “Metal Ligaen”, which is the top league.

                                                                                 

Come on Pirates !

The Aalborg's stadium

Actually there wasn’t a lot of audience for this game (maybe because of the weather, it was very cold this evening!). But there was always the Aalborg Pirates fans who sing during the game, no matter the score, in other words even if the players lose the game they continue to sing. For my part I like this kind of atmosphere, I think it’s very fair for the Aalborg’s team.

The kop is here !

However, at the end, despite the sings of the Aalborg’s fans, Aalborg Pirates lost 6-3, it’s a great defeat especially at home… But all the team played well, it’s the main important thing.

Finally I spent a good evening with my friends. Oh I forgot to notice that I went to this hockey game freely thanks to a commercial offering for the ERASMUS students, I just paid the bus to come.

See you around for new experiences!
