Bird's Nest

Wednesday night, Cindy and I went to the Olympic stadium to watch a charity soccer game between Birmingham City (English Premier League) and Beijing Guo'an (Chinese league).  We arrived late and left early.  We bought scalped tickets for the lower bowl at upper bowl price.  Olympic stadiums are typically bad soccer venues, and this was no exception....it just isn't designed for soccer.  I would say about two-thirds of the 80,000 seats were full.  Beijing's team plays half their home games here and half in another stadium.  I might try to catch a game in the other stadium sometime.  Here are the photos.
