Ciao guys.
Long time from me here, as I'm just a "lurker"
So I've done the Turin pilgrimage twice, thankfully. However, this time I want more of an adrenaline rush, and I want to attend an Away match.
The plan is AC Milan - Juventus in San Siro, in the Settore Ospiti (AWAY section).
Has anyone attended San Siro as a visiting Juve fan in the Away section???
I just wanted everyone's advice on that. I mean I'm not the type to look for trouble, but I would expect verbal abuse, "Juve Merda" or "Ladri" etc....
So my question is, would I need to keep a low profile in terms of keeping my jersey tucked underneath my jacket, keep the scarf/flags in my backpack until I'm seated in my section...etc?
How "safe" is it, and what are the chances of getting mugged, stabbed, attacked? lol
Am I being very paranoid here?
Appreciate if any of you have visitor-fan adventures within Italy, and could share that with us.
My ultimate experience would be attending the San Paolo, and I've heard that can be a very dangerous mission if not planned properly..(i.e. travel with an organized Juve-fan pullman that drops you exactly at the gate, you don't mingle anywhere near home fans, then at full time the entire stadium is emptied, while the visitors are "locked" in until they're allowed to leave....)
Still sorting out visa and tickets. In the mean time I appreciate your advice tips.
