Steven Gerrard treats L.A. Galaxy fans to free beer before grand unveiling
Posted Monday, July 06, 2015 by ESPN
Steven Gerrard is introduced to the fans at the break.
As you're no doubt aware, Steven Gerrard was officially unveiled as an L.A. Galaxy player during the interval of his new side's 4-0 thrashing of Toronto FC on Saturday.
However, unable to wow the Galaxy faithful on the pitch for another two weeks while he waits to make his debut, Gerrard embarked on an altogether different, more direct charm offensive before his halftime introduction.
Indeed, Gerrard treated each of the three main Galaxy supporters' groups to a mountain of complimentary beer before the match.

The note affixed to the wall of ale reads:
"LA Riot Squad --
Even though I've yet to wear an LA Galaxy jersey, I am excited for the opportunity to play in front of LARS and earn your respect.
Supporters are the lifeblood of any club and I know that with your support we'll challenge for MLS Cup again.
As a token of my appreciation for what you do for the club, I wanted to provide you with the refreshments for the 4th of July.
I look forward to meeting you at tonight's match.
Respectfully,
Steven Gerrard"
What a fantastic little gesture. No wonder the general populace of Los Angeles already thinks our Stevie's nicer than David Beckham!
