Bodø/Glimt is aiming to make history as the first Norwegian soccer club to reach a European final. In a unique exchange, a Norwegian fan traded five kilograms of semi-dried fish for a ticket to the semifinal clash between Bodø/Glimt and Tottenham Hotspur in the Arctic Circle. With overwhelming demand, only 480 tickets were available for the Europa League semifinal match, leading to creative bartering among fans. One fan, Torbjørn Eide, offered his prized Norwegian delicacy, boknafisk, in exchange for a ticket after missing out on the initial sale. Inspired by this trade, another fan, Nils Erik Oskal, tried his luck with five kilograms of reindeer meat to secure a ticket. These unconventional exchanges highlight the excitement and anticipation surrounding this historic match.
