Thanks for the post. loved the video. Becks appeal is incrediable.My goodness,look at the huge crowd. Amazing!!
Hey, good turnout in Seoul for the autograph signing. It was nice of ADIDAS and crew to set this up for their people. It'll be nice for South Korean 'Beckham' fans to see some of our players when they're not on the soccer field. I really hope that the turn out at Seoul Stadium will be great. I am guessing that Tom Payne and Alexi Lalas are already working out details and specifics for the Shanghai appearance (next leg of the Asia Tour). They LA Galaxy staff and Herbalife Sponsors have got to put in the necessary amount of time and man-power to make sure everything goes according to schedule in Shanghai. Shanghai is a very HECTIC, BUSY, CONGESTED place inside the main city. You can compare it to Chinatown and Koreatown in Downtown LA. But mainland China has come a LONG, LONG way in getting the city ready for outside tourists again.
It's great that the Galaxy got to the Adidas store and signed autographs for the corporate sponsors and got some free shoes. But next time in Korea, why not take a few minutes and come out to the US military base in Seoul and visit with the US troops and family members that are so far from home serving our country (and some of whom are from LA and are Galaxy fans!)?
