It feels like a very long time since I wrote this post about the problems in being an Interista who isn’t from Italy, where I also asked for a actions that could honor the words ‘brothers of the world’ that this club was created with. The true meaning of being brothers of the world was shown last weekend when I was in Milan with my Swedish friends to see Inter-Juventus.
Our friends from Bauscià Café had helped us with getting tickets to a part of our group. After this we found out that it was possible to get tickets on Inter.it without any problems, even though you don’t have the Tessera del tifoso. Great stuff really and one of the points in my previous articles that I wanted Inter to fix. And Inter also fixed the problem with name changes for season tickets, something that Bauscia Café pointed out in a previous article. But this was just a small part of what made us feel like brothers of the world this time.
At the game day we had been invited to a lunch with a group of Interisti active on Twitter and Facebook. We were the first ones to arrive at the restaurant and instantly put our Giacinto Facchetti flag up. After this person after person arrived and the atmosphere was great. People ate, drank and laughed. And the Swedish friends who don’t talk a word of Italian, felt at home as well. After the lunch we went to the stadium together and had a couple of beers before we all entered to cheer for our team, and after the game Miss Green(as she wants to be called) and Sullina guided us to an Interisti bar where all the greatness continued. .
We felt like home, and we felt like we were brothers of the world. We felt like we represented the true spirit of F.C. Internazionale, in opposite toof what other people should feel after what happened on the game day.
