Basically every team here has a 'hardcore' section of fans who'll sing & chant all game but how many people do it depends very much on how the team's doing of course! <br /><br />P.S. most stadiums are smaller than the O2 (average around 7000) so the atmosphere is great. Slavia big stadium is something of a disadvantage... When my local team (Brno kometa) play there we outnumber them 10000 - 4000 ish ! ! !<br /><br />great post and keep blogging from Europe when you can !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-43601636422249131612011-09-28T05:34:51.829-04:002011-09-28T05:34:51.829-04:00Glad to hear you are enjoying the start of your tr...Glad to hear you are enjoying the start of your trip. <br /><br />Hockey on the Continent is a fantastic experience. I went to a game in Garmisch, Germany, last season. The arena had seating along its length but standing terraces behind either net. The home and away fans were standing behind either net and singing, chanting & mocking each other the entire game. It was like having a soccer crowd at a hockey game, incredible stuff.Lukehttp://www.thebearessentials.netnoreply@blogger.com
