Well, it is all about luck. If you meet one of them in town, there's obviously no planning involved.
And when you are somewhere the entire team is, it pretty much depends on how busy they are, how many people there are, etc. Sometimes the players are "free", sometimes they're shielded.


As for pics: About half the time, I'd say. Maybe even less.
Guess I just can't be bothered. You don't want to know how many times I've been there thinking: "Damn, next time I'll bring a shirt for them to sign." And, subsequently, I don't.

Next time though

Cool, thanks Buck

OK, finally some access to my notes:

Get your ass to Guido in Pollenzo: http://viaggiatoregourmet.blogspot.com/2007/04/guido-ristorante-pollenzo-bra-cn.html
I've spent an insane amount of money on good restaurants in my lifetime, and that was one of my top 3 experiences.

If AB+ is still open in Torino, it's both an awesome restaurant and a pretty high falutin' club:

A little cheaper but still a fine restaurant in Torino, Magorabin:

And it's worth checking out the Mole Antonelliana

And Caffè Mulassano, IMO, makes the best espresso in town.

Reporting live and direct from Torino

Staying of Carlo Alberti in Grand Hotel Sitea. Torino is very nice but there is some Alpini festival where these old army fucks have been parading all FUCKING DAY which caused them to shut down via Roma/ via Po. So we have to walk all the way to the train station to go underground to get to the other side of the street.

Went to the Juve store and dropped alot of cash there on shit they don't have on any websites. I was gonna buy either a Nedved, ZZ or Vialli jersey but the problem was they were all in this seasons away shirt so I was like f that I opted to get a throwback Zoff GK jersey

We're looking to dinner now but need suggestions, please txt me @ 3663358974

holla

I would love to be in Turin sometime.

Post some pics Dru.

So I am unable to buy tix for the game because the ticket office is closed on Mondays

Can someone tell me where else I can buy tix? Can I just go to the stadium a few hours before game time to buy them? Will they sell them to me because ppl have been telling me that they ask for passport to buy tix. PLEASE HELP

 

[Buck Fuddy]

Which ticket office have you tried, Dru?
Also, take into account that a lot (almost all) of stores are closed in Italy on Monday morning. But quite a lot of them open on Monday afternoon.


And yes, you will definitely need a passport.

 

[Ahmed]

the Juve store?! at least they may know where to get some...

 

[Buck Fuddy]

Some addresses you could try:

CORSO VITTORIO EMANUELE II 98/B C
10121 TORINO(TO)

VIA CERNAIA 16/C
10122 TORINO(TO)

VIA SAN DONATO 18
10144 TORINO(TO)

CORSO REGINA MARGHERITA 231
10144 TORINO(TO)

CORSO STATI UNITI 9
10128 TORINO(TO)


Would surprise me if all of these are closed. Alternatively, I don't think the game will sell out, so tickets will be on sale at the stadium as well. Starts 2 hours before kick off, iirc.

I tried the ticket office near Piazza Castello - the Juventus Premier Club. Thanks for the info

I went there and they told me to go to the Premier Club on San Federico which was closed

Awesome! So I'll try these otherwise I'll get them at the stadium, thank you sooooo much Buck!

No problem.
It's entirely normal for the ticket office(s) to be closed on Monday "morning". Most of them will probably open around 15h30.

Enjoy!

 

[JCK]

Damn and listicket has stopped selling for the venue but I am sure you will find tickets at the windows just before the match.

Here's a question for Buck, how good is their English if you were to run into one and wanted to chat?
