It was only fitting that Arthur fall in love with the sport known as The Beautiful Game in the city known as The City Beautiful.
If you’re a kid in Gainesville, FL, and you enjoy sports, there’s a good chance you are a big fan of college football and basketball. The Florida Gators were the first team to capture Arthur’s heart, and he was fortunate enough to be a member of the Florida Drumline when Gator football and basketball were dominating the country.
Arthur played soccer as a kid, but the sport didn’t become a passion of his until 2014 after attending an Orlando City match vs. São Paulo FC. Experiencing the constant movement, the intense velocity, the relentless chanting, the relief of the keeper getting a crucial save, and the energy of a striker scoring an amazing goal - it’s difficult not to enjoy.
After that first match, Arthur became a season ticket holder with the Orlando City, and fittingly he held down a central position directly behind the drumline in the Supporter Section since the club’s first season in MLS. As a Society XXI Member and representative of the inaugural #FaceOfCity Class of 2018, you can definitely say that Arthur is a dedicated supporter of OCSC.
Arthur has also fallen in love with other leagues and clubs around the world, and even attended a PSG match in Paris in 2018.
