Hello everyone, this is Roy from LFC staff.

It ended yesterday, but this time I went to see my favorite team, the Hiroshima Toyo Carp!

The Carp had their spring training camp in Okinawa from late February, and I went to watch Carp practices and games on all four of my days off from work! That's how much I love the Carp!

Last year, I was not able to see the show because it was a no-show, so I was looking forward to this day because I was told I would be able to see the show this year, despite the limited number of people!

It's my number one hobby, so the good times flew by!

Then a miracle happened! Arai, my favorite player who retired 4 years ago, happened to be visiting the stadium that day and was sitting right next to me, which surprised and excited me! I went over to talk to him, thinking it was my only chance! And since I was wearing Arai's uniform that day, he looked at my uniform and said, "Do you want me to sign your autograph? and he wrote it in large letters on the back of my uniform! I had gotten his autograph when I was a student and when he happened to be at my part-time job, so I hadn't seen him since then! He was very kind to me and made me like him even more!

We hope to win the league championship and Japan's No.1 this year!
