Istanbul Gone Wild!

The Turkish soccer club Fenerbahce just toppled the English goliath (and my personal soccer team) Chelsea 2-1 here in Turkey. The streets of Istanbul are going wild and the echo of sirens, screams, and horns can be heard everywhere. I'm almost scared to go onto the streets it sounds that bad, We would be out watching the game at a pub or something if not for out early flight to Izmir tomorrow. Oh well, watching the game in the hotel was an experience in and of itself. The hotel erupted after Fenerbahce's second goal, leaving us London program-ers in a dismal state. At least the excitement of the city makes up for the loss. So how much you think a knock-off Fenerbahce's jersey price went up overnight?
