Abby Wambach comes to Rochester

I got to see Abby and several other World Cup soccer players in a recent game in Rochester that set a new Women's Soccer attendance record. It was pretty cool even though hometown legend Abby didn't play.   I went with a bunch of other people and we got a group discount and only paid $10 a ticket.

Marta (The Brazilian) is amazing. The crowd cheered extra loud for each player that had played in the world cup, not just the American players (although louder for them). Abby was given the key to the city and spoke at half time. The Rochester Flash won the game over MagicJack. Well here are some pictures.
