Day at Snowbird with Real Salt Lake

What a special event we were able to attend last week at Snowbird. As season ticket holders, we were invited to meet the entire Real Salt Lake soccer team. We got lots of signatures from all of the players as well as plenty of pictures. The best part was watching Boston having so much fun running around and chasing Leo the Lion (the mascot). Boston also made quick friends with Nick Rimando. Boston was playing soccer at one of the areas and just before he shot the ball, Nick Rimando (the goalie) stepped in and stood in the goal. Boston thought it was so cool and he kicked the ball right past Rimando. Then, Rimando stood and grabbed Boston and took a quick picture with him. You can see that picture below.

This was right before Boston went to shoot.
Here is Rimando posing with Boston.

Some pictures with the team.

We are very eager to see Real Salt Lake finish out the season strong and remain in 1st place in the West. They have now reacquired Clint Mathis and they are still looking to add one more player to this team to push for a cup championship!
