Hello. I am a sociology student at the University of California Irvine. I am currently doing a study on soccer fans for my research methods class.
If you can, please copy and paste this survey into an e-mail and send it to me at nmiric14@yahoo.com . Mark you answers by placing an X in front of them. If you answer a question "other (specify)" write your answer on the same line. This survey will remain confedential.
