CAMP NOU By Josh McNutt

FC Barcelona is a soccer team that plays in the top tier of the Spanish professional league. Their stadium; Camp Nou is one of the most iconic in the world. Built in 1957, the stadium has been renovated several times since its inauguration and currently holds just over 99 thousand fans. The stadium is home to some of the greatest players in the world such as Messi, Neymar Jr., Suarez and formerly, Ronaldinho. We were fortunate enough to take a tour of the stadium on our first day here in Barcelona. We went in press boxes, the visiting team locker room, through the tunnel to the field and even on field level! As a soccer player, his was one of the locations I really wanted to visit on this trip and the experience of everything we did was amazing. What inspired me most on this trip was hearing David Trimble and FW de Klerk defend America in front of the whole world during a live broadcast of the conference.
