An Italian football
match is an experience not to be missed for the quality
of the play and the fun atmosphere. Rome has two teams,
AS Roma and SS Lazio, and they take it in turns to play
at the Stadio Olimpico on a Sunday afternoon at 3pm (unless
they are playing the following week in either the Champions
League or Uefa Cup in which case their league matches
may be brought forward a day to the Saturday ) in the
Campionato Italiano (Italian championship league or Serie
A as it is more commonly known seats can be scarce, so
get tickets in advance from the stadium (22 euros - 78
euros)
The cheapest tickets are in i distinti
then Le Curve stand. The middle range and the most expensive
are in Le Gradinate and La Tribuna respectively. Monte
Mario Stand is where all the VIPs , Press and Rich / Famous
people go. The Olympic Stadium was built in the 1930s
during the fascist Mussolini era and is a relic to a period
that most Italians would rather forget - nevertheless
it remains one of the most intimidating stadiums in Italy.
Did
you Know? The stadium capacity is 85000
all seated.
