Let's Learn about L.A. Firpo!!!



Besides this Tuesday (7/28) being Hugh Squire's birthday, DC United is playing an El Salvadorian club called L.A. Firpo... besides them having a funny name, here are some more interesting facts....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.D._Lu%C3%ADs_%C3%81ngel_Firpo
- the Oldest Club in El Savlvador
- Named after a famous boxer
- Team mascot, the bull
- Major supporters group: el Furia Pampera (no match for the blackfoot)
- home stadium is known as Estadio Sergio Torres, better known throughout Central America as "The Devil's Cauldron" because it is close to impossible to defeat Firpo there. (does RFK have a nickname besides craphole? how about the black hole?)

Come out and have a drink with Hughy enjoy some good football and join the Blackfoot ranks before we start taking applications. See you near the wasp-tree.

Chef.

    and hulk, don't ever refer to the hallowed halls of RFK as the "craphole", or have you forgotten that it is the sight of all 4 of our championships? a little respect for this penultimate pitch, if you please.
