Tell Us Your Stories of How You Converted Your Friends to Become Soccer Fans

Have you ever converted a soccer hater to a soccer lover? Or how about converting a disinterested sports fan into a soccer nut? If you have, share your story in the comments section below.

It took me 10 years but I’ve turned my brother-in-law from a person who always moaned about soccer, whenever the topic came up, into someone who doesn’t follow the sport, but has grown a greater appreciation of it. He’s watched a few games and has taken an interest in the sport (thanks to his daughter who plays on a travel team).

I’m sure I’ve influenced a few people to becoming mad soccer fans through this blog, but I have a feeling that many of you have much better stories of converting unsuspecting sports fans into soccer die-hards. Share your stories below of who you converted, how you did it and how many people you think you’ve converted.
