Busan Lotte Giants

I went to the season opener of the baseball team here (Busan Lotte Giants). It was absolutely crazy, the crowd goes nuts like it's an Irish soccer game. They sell way too many tickets, so people are just packed in there, everyone was ecstatic, and they cheer and chant like mad. "IT'S A BALL!! HE THREW A BALL!! AHHHH!! OH MY GOD!!" (but in Korean). It was seriously crazy, but a lot of fun. They had the team motto in English on a big banner at the entrance gates:

Busan is Giants
Baseball is Giants
Best is Giants
