I drove there from Frankfurt (~4 hours), slapped my tent up at the local campsite and caught a taxi into town with some other Stokies from the campsite.
Drank lots of expensive beer in the red&white decorated city centre and went to my seat in the home end (because I live in Germany I'd had to buy a home ticket) wearing my Stoke Away top (the Inter Milan one but of course we played in our 3rd top grr). The Home fans were really friendly even giving me some tins of their beer because you couldn't buy it around the ground. Their security came and sat next to me and asked some questions about why I was there, which as I answered in German they were satisfied that I wasn't about to take on the whole home end on my own and left me to it.
Spoke to a couple of the Thun players after the game, told them they didn't have a chance in Stoke because we're awful away but 10 times better at home. ;-p
Had a long and expensive evening afterwards, culminating in an overpriced kebab and taxi. Got back to the campsite and my tent had collapsed in a mini windstorm sometime in the evening. Fetched my sleeping bag out and slept under the stars, after sharing another tinnie with some ace Stoke fans in the next tent. Needless to say it rained around 3am.
Was a long journey home, but an ace time was had.

Best Season ever of 25 years.
Thun was something special 11 of us in Thun and 6 made it to Geneva the day after. 8 went to Istanbul & 29 to Valencia.
This won't happen again in our prime.
