Aspect Joins Record-Setting Crowd for Sounders vs. Barcelona Match

A group of nearly 50 from Aspect joined 67,000 fans in packing Qwest Field for the friendly match between the upstart Seattle Sounders and FC Barcelona, the reigning European Champions. With our Seattle office located in Pioneer Square and in the shadows of the stadium, we were able to watch the crowds build throughout the afternoon and make plans for our own pre-game festivities with beer, pizza, and margaritas. The stars from FC Barcelona put on quite a clinic with their crisp passing game. Messi, considered by most the best player in the world right now, showed off his footwork with two goals in the first half while Carles Puyol locked down the defense end of the pitch.
