Some of us have dreamed of a trip like this since we were kids. Some of us simply crave adventure. Some of us are die-hard fans. Some of us are going home and some of us are simply working on the bucket-list. Whatever the reason, we take this journey together as we step our feet in beautiful South Africa.

The boots that have once kicked thousands of soccer balls on American turf will lead us from Chicago to Switzerland, into the spirited lands of South Africa. We embark on this adventure as 12 courageous men and woman supporting our nation as we battle the best of the best in this years 2010 FIFA World Cup.

We have created this site so all of those back home in America can get a taste of what it will feel like to hear the 50,000 Vuvuzela’s blowing in the stadium skies, mingle with the culture of the native African’s, and feast on many a Braai.

Hear us loud and proud, “The yanks are coming!” The matches we'll attend will be filled with some of the greatest footballers in the world; Donavon, Messi, Ronaldo, Torres, Rooney.

Along with the 6 matches we will be attending, Paul and Kelley have graciously planned adventures to lion parks, cheetah farms, famous pubs and bars, a guided safari, game reserves, sight-seeing around Pretoria, Menlyn, and of course Johannesburg. We thank Paul’s family ahead of time and for years to come for their hospitality and kindness.

We wait with anticipation, fear, hope, excitement and pure elation. We will step on the plane as travelers and return as mates, never to forget how this experience will change our lives forever...
