For Parent’s day, Luca had both his father and his mother fly over to Baltimore to come watch a few games of the Platoon as well as visit the city and Washington D.C. The only other time his parents had come to the USA, the team was still based in Miami, Florida so to experience a whole new environment was a fun experience for them.
Being Italian parents, you can already know what happened when they visited his apartment. They inspected his fridge and went shopping for all the Italian necessities, finding his current stock in ingredients insufficient. Hard enough to spend half the year on the road, and the other half barely at home as you’re training in the team facilities and eating the food prepared for you by the team nutritionists. Try explaining that to your parents!
Overall, it was a fun week spent with his parents and an experience that would be best not repeated every season.
