Where to buy your tickets for the game
by Calcio
There are three small ticket-offices around the stadium, on the outside of the tribunes.
First you must decide which section you would like to sit in, as you can't buy tickets for all sectors at every office.
For a neutral I would advice the smaller longside of the stadium, as the price is cheaper, but you'll see as good as if you were sitting on the head-tribune. Tickets there costs much more.
Have no idea how much the tickets cost now in Serie C2, but you shouldn't pay more than 10-12 euro for a good seat.
Away-supporters stands in the curva, and the Como-supporters that still goes to the stadium stands in the other end of the stadium.
The Tree
by Aurorae
I wonder what was the tree villa was named after like, if it was as beautiful and impressive as this one behind the villa, in its back yard. I also wonder how this tree looks like under the snow cover in winter, if it ever snows in Como!!! Very rarely I hear... The tree and the grass are always green, no matter the season!
The Anchor
by Aurorae
In front of the villa Olmo, at the very lakeside, there is the huge anchor, kind of a monument nowadays, I wonder if it's real, if it belonged to some ship that really sailed in the Como waters. If so, it inded needed a very good anchor, as Como is the deepest lake in Europe, and its bottom is below sea level.
Civility and manners are evident in Como
by icunme
Even the signs here are worded in such a gracious and mannerly way - we see "Rispetta il Verde" - "Respect the Green" - instead of, perhaps, "Keep Off the Grass"...........

Yachting Club
by Aurorae
Another classy spot in Como, only for those with deep pockets - yachting club Como. It's near the Aero Club and since there is a marina, it's a perfect spot for the yachting club. You'll find lots of veeeeery expensive cars parked in front!
There is also sailing school.
