Craig Kinney was featured as the RSL Season Ticket Member of the Match Saturday, when RSL hosted the San Jose Earthquakes. A devoted fan since 2005 and a season ticket holder for the past three years, Craig's love for soccer began in his childhood in São Paulo, Brazil, where he played in various forms, from street games to Futsal and high school competitions. One of his favorite RSL memories is when RSL took on Atlanta earlier this season where he witnessed an outstanding performance by Luna, who scored three goals and assisted three more, and Chicho, who tied the RSL single-season scoring record.
Craig's decision to become a season ticket holder was influenced by his lifelong love for "o jogo bonito" (the beautiful game), and the joy of experiencing the games with his wife, sometimes their kids, and now even a grandchild. While he has a special place in his heart for Brazilian players like Éverton and Paulo Jr, his favorite player in recent years is Andrew Brody. Craig admires Brody for his versatility, his relentless energy, and his exceptional skill with the ball, qualities that make watching RSL games a thrilling experience for him and his family.
