Journal of the City-812 "on November 10, 2008.

Soup - Cream of the fans.

difficult to overestimate the importance of the match against BATE for Zenith. Therefore, another 2 weeks before the match, the city has already raged. St. Petersburg's numerous Torcida agreed by all means to ensure Zenith native walls - especially as the opportunities to travel to Minsk was a lot, despite the international status of the match. In the end, decided to go all - experienced, inexperienced, young, adults, families - All those who drive rarely, if at all rides. And we decided to go with 2 friends - and how, such a match, evrovyezd, Champions League ... began an epic in the collection of Tickets for the match - the most fortunate were going to Minsk with them on their hands - but the vast majority didst trust in the generosity of the Belarusian brothers and went to the football at random. The question arose - how to get there? At Minsk train tickets direct dared a couple of days - and experienced fans to invent options for routes. We chose One of the most popular - from St. Petersburg to Kaliningrad Molodechno on the train, thence by train to Minsk. Many people helped dopsostav, who organized the club. And of course, the fan sectors Petrovsky was organized by the sea buses. Each new precarious route that would be boring to go alone among ordinary people who have no understanding of football - in fact it turned out that the slightest fear in vain - no one is left - all trains of the Minsk direction leaving from Vitebsk Station under zenitovskie songs were full of cars inside the blue-white-blue and the conductors knocked down and experienced, looking each other terrible eyes and whispering at least a terrible word:-Fans ... Check out the grandiose planned. On November 1, blue-white-blue wave - more than 8,000 человек -   начала катиться к Минску. Вечером 4 числа на Витебском было некуда деться – все вокруг заполонили наши фанаты. На платформе у поезда – флаги, песни, second-class trains packed - and all ours, ours. Several residents Kalingrada in terror clung to their shelves. Sleep they almost failed - our usual good prepared - alcohol poured down the river the whole way, at each stop activists from all over the train platform zapolonyayut, collected in one pile and not allowed to sleep More and residents unhappy little station - consistently and loudly singing and chanting - to let everyone know and have heard who is going, why and where. On the territory of Belarus repertoire changes dramatically - every Belarusian station is buried in a loud voice, the hymn of Russia - to be feared. In the orgy of cars, great fun is to talk with zonked conductor chants, and a question on her answers directly polvagona ... dining car ruined - our much with it not take - all few turns. In Belarus, the stations do not buy beer - they have a law, but they faithfully observe it. Realizing that would not sell, anyway, we are puzzled at first - It is very difficult to realize that the law is always enforced. Then the national anthem and patriotic chants start to rattle loudly triple. In Molodechno morning oil painting - A huge number of good-natured and calm militsYi and five times greater than ours. Everything happens surprisingly conciliatory. Immediately starts tasting the local beer - taste the mostly happy owners of Belarusian money - exchanger is not, and our Dollar is not wanted. Arriving train to Minsk - And it turns out that good Belarusians gave us 2 cars in which we will go free - because of currency we have no one. And the truth - and a half hours to Minsk go free - beer, though they have the trains do not sell - the law is.
