It was tuesday evening and the premier league has been on a break for 1 1/2 weeks already. That's way too much for a freak like me. I couldn't handle it anymore so i've been trying to get any kind of football stimulus and i decided to go watch Thailand - Oman world cup qualifier. It was played not very far from my home at the Rajamangala national stadium. When i went there i still didn't know how to get the tickets and if there was any official sellers anywhere. There was loads of people around the area, most of them going to the match and others working, selling football related things and something edible. 
As i went closer to the stadium i saw many people selling tickets on the street. Also many people buying from them so i assumed it was a safe thing to do. I still continued closer to the stadium and gave it some thought. Drank a cup of coffee and watched the masses. Suddenly one guy came to me and asked if i was going to watch the match. I said yes and he handed me a ticket and said here you are welcome to Thailand. As in my country were always thought to be suspicious about nice people so i wondered a little but i didn't see any problem taking a free ticket. I asked him if he wanted one and he said he already has his, he just got a spare one. "Welcome to Thailand" he said again and i thanked him alot but i felt i couldn't really thank him well enough because i was left silent after such a display of being nice. So now i had a free ticket to the game, and also in the best stand, not bad! I still don't know where to officially buy them except from the internet and the sellers around the stadium but this ticket would have set you down 500 thb. A little bit more than 10€ and about 15$. The cheaper tickets cost anything inbetween that and 100 thb (about 3 dollars or 2,5€).This is the end of part 1. To be continued....
