"Erik Seidel is railing you now!" stated Ari Engel.

"Epic rail. Epic rail!" stated another rail bird.

Erik Seidel has just wondered into the Thunder-Dome and taken a seat. We're not sure if he is watching the action, trying to get some alone time or here for some peace and quiet, but what we can say is that he won't be getting any peace and quiet as the Brazilian rail has just launched into a thunderous chanting and clapping session.

Seidel sat up from looking down at his iPad and sneaked a wry smile as he watched the Brazilians go crazy from the other side of the stadium.
