This week, Twitter turns 8 years old. Lucky for us they’ve developed a nice little tool that allows you to find the first tweets of anyone who isn’t locked. It’s been great fun, especially seeing how all of the great Twitterers out there started their “legacy”. That being said, here’s a few of the better first tweets from personalities IN and AROUND the soccer world.
