The World Cup has turned me into a Football fan. I decided I want to watch more Football than just World Cup. I used Grok Ai to suggest a team based on which American sports teams I support and it recommended Aston Villa for their rich history and up and coming squad. I live close to Birmingham Alabama so I figure I have a true claim since AV plays in Birmingham England. And I found out we play for a super cup soon!

Anyways I’m happy to start my Football journey and would love any tips/recommendations for supporting this team as an American fan. Cheers

I don’t watch much football these days, but I had the luck of meeting Youri here in Seattle. I actually didn’t recognize him at first but helped some fans take a picture with him and then asked afterwards. He seems like a great guy and I hope he and other footballers are enjoying the anonymity here in the states.

PS: sorry to the people I helped take the picture for if the camera was in selfie mode!
