Grasshoppers in pitchside jacuzzi? Fans’ VIP treatment, Swiss style

Nothing beats comfort while watching a match, but these Grasshoppers supporters have taken that to new levels.

Pitchside viewing, in a jacuzzi, with a few cold ones sounds like our idea of heaven. Not necessarily to watch Grasshoppers in the Swiss league perhaps, but the principle is something we agree with whole heartedly.

These two fans became the first to avail of the club’s new VIP package at the weekend, and to cap it all off, the home side won 3-1.

The lads enjoyed a few complimentary brewskis, though we’re not sure just how ‘free’ it was, as the package no doubt cost a few shillings.

They seemed to thoroughly their novel night of football at the Letzigrund Stadium, with the players even celebrating with the lads after one of their goals.

It might just get a little unruly for the Airtricity League, but no harm in giving it a go.
