My two reasons to celebrate May 5, 2002
This is a date that will live forever in the hearts of many juventini. But it also has a special meaning for myself and my wife.
That Sunday morning, I proposed to my wife from the balcony of our Ravello apartment - overlooking the beautiful Tyrrhenian Sea at the beginning of a long trip in Italy. Not only did she say "yes" with reason to celebrate later that day, but hours later the hillsides around town echoed the sounds of Juve winning their 22nd scudetto in dramatic fashion on the last day of the season.
All of which only further solidified my bianconeri bonds.
Two years later we returned to visit Italy as husband and wife -- you could say 'consummating' it with our first match together at the delle Alpi. I have few prouder moments in life than the afternoon before the match, when my wife purchased her own Juve Girls sweatshirt at the Via Garibaldi Juvestore.
