I have been to a couple of matches there - Inter v Empoli in 1999 (5-1) and AC Milan v Roma in 2006 (2-1). Electric atmosphere. One tip. Don't sit at the very back in the 3rd tier! We couldn't see much of the game. In 1997 I went with my brother to the Roma v Lazio derby at the Stadio Olimpico. It was quite intimidating. Sat with the Roma fans in the 'curva'. Roma lost 2-0. Plenty of police around checking tickets etc well before we reached the stadium gates. Still enjoyable though. I live in Turin but never managed to see a game at the Stadio delle Alpi. Looking forward to the new English style stadium they are now building. I think it will be ready for 2011. The San Siro is something else I agree.
