Will be in Florence that day so we are taking a train in. Also bringing the wife since it's our honeymoon. I don't see many women in the stands. Am I asking for rape?

This may be only the board where you don't get 100 posts asking for pics following that question.


Seriously, there are really a lot of girls, women with their kids etc who go to matches. That some Italian guys will flirt with women well beyond what's considered acceptable or even civilized in the US is going to happen everywhere anyway but no worse going to a football match.

In general, the environment isn't nearly as rough as lot of people imagine from seeing the news about fights between Ultras' groups. Just like if you were leaving a game between LSU and Alabama and avoid the few groups of drunk troublemakers it's pretty calm.

What won't be calm is simply the chaos of getting the underground + tram or bus from Termini to the stadium. Leave yourself extra time.
