Well, I made it to Siena just fine. But it seems that getting a ticket here tomorrow morning may be a bit trickier than the scalpers I dealt with for the Coppa in Torino on Wednesday. (Damn, that was my first Juve home game ever, and it was so cool -- I will have to start a post later when I get back and can transfer video clips of the Coppa, though mostly of the tifosi ultras, for posting.)
The buzz in Siena, of course, is all about the scandal investigation of player links to Napoli mob connections over throwing games for bets. (The locals don't expect much to come of it, seeing that it's only a few players). There is a general excitement, however, centered around this being the last game of the season. The Siena fans are happy to otherwise have qualified for Serie A next season, and Juve is third no matter what.
Walking by the Siena stadium today, and comparing it to the delle Alpi from Wednesday, it is like seeing Juve in a high school football stadium. Leveraging some local connections, I hope to have some additional video clips to post later of Lippi's last game heading the Juventini.

I dunno when I'll be going to my first Juve home game but I might be able to get tickets for the Arsenal - Juve friendly in the summer. Should be good...

All the horror stories I heard about the delle Alpi as a venue were mostly exaggerated, IMO. (Perhaps I was setting my expectations very low.) But I could see how removing the track and having a smaller stadium could make it more attractive for fans.
Thanks!
Being my first time there I hadn't quite figured out the "system". First off, I bought tickets for a highly sold Coppa Final/Lippi home game final -- and I ended up getting great seats (at not too bad a price) from a scalper on the day of game. Had I known I could purchase Siena tickets in advance, I certainly would have.
The irony now is that I made some remote connections up to a fair matron of the A.C. Siena società and am hoping to score tickets that way. Which may mean I will have to watch the game in the Curva alongside all the Siena tifosi. Being the first time that Juve has come here in some 50 years (plus being the last game of the season, plus it's Juve) it's going to sell out. So I'll take what I can get! Even if my Juve scarf gets me stares.

hmm.. i think del piero really deserves to be a starter for Italy, he had a ok season, and had to fight with a lot of injurys!!! I think that Trap will make a hugh mistake if e prefers Cassano over Alex!!!
as the last game showed Del Piero is doing fine!!!
I think Del Piero-Totti-Vieri is much more effectiv than with Cassano!!!!! and Del Piero has more experience!!
I think del Piero will play a great WC and after that a great season with juve!!
for siena game i would start del Piero along with Miccoli!! I can't see Miccoli sitting on the bench all the time! also i would give players like Chiumento, Budianski a chance!!
lets see, i think 3:1 for Juve!
