Little Mooses on the Loose at White Hart Lane
posted in A Moose's Life |
I am so Happy … today I received a phone call saying my my two children will be Spurs mascots at the Tottenham v Watford match on March 17th, 2007 … I am totally ectatstic! When I told my kids, they were so excited that they were jumping around the room with massive adorable smiles.
Yep, you guessed it, we are a proud football family, with 3 Season tickets in the Upper West Stand at White Hart Lane, cheering on Martin Jol’s blue & white army. Mind you my children have the biggest lungs in every department, sometimes I like to think my fine set of man boobs, which were ones impressive pecs are slowly catching up.
My daughter & son will be living, breathing & experiencing the opportunity I could have only dreamed off as a child – what with being a Spurs supporter all my life. I was originally informed the waiting list would be about 2 years, and when I broke the news to the kids I maintained a sullen tone implying that it may be longer, cruel sense of humour ain’t I got.
Well at least I fullfilled one personal dream and that was to kick around a ball on the actual pitch at White Hart Lane, well I did, on the last game of the season at a corporate hospitality bash prior to the unfortunate away game on the last day of the season at West Ham, where half the team went down with food poisoning & we lost losing out on Champions League football. It was a great experience & I even scored a goal, acrobatically jumping up in the air whilst simultaneously switching feet to volley the Beach Ball .. yes that’s right .. a Beach Ball into the top right hand corner of the goal from a massive distance of 6 feet in wind prevailing conditions.
Obviously when the big day for my kids arrives, I’ll blog the big match day.
Come on You Spurs !!!
Congratulations. Look forward to seeing the pics of the Big Day in the blog 🙂
Thats great news! – Please show us the pics when you get them!
Great stuff Paul – shame about the team though 😉
You’re kids will love it – I was a mascot for Crystal Palace (season ticket holder myself) at the age of 12 (13 was the cut off point) and I enjoyed every second of it. Really is a magical experience for a football fanatic child!
BTW – Glad I found the blog 🙂
