Mònica Ruiz, Museum visitor number 20 million

www.fcbarcelona.cat

A 25 year old girl from Lleida became the 20 millionth visitor to the Barça museum on Thursday. Her name is Mònica Ruiz.

It was just after 12.00 midday when 25 year old Mònica Ruiz from Almenar (Lleida) passed through the ticket offices with a friend and wearing a Xavi shirt. Mònica was welcomed by Javier Faus, economic vice president of the club, and received a giant ticket that credited her as visitor 20 million. The media were there to record the moment for posterity. Said Monica, “it was quite a surprise.” She added that she had no idea that the Museum was expecting history to be made that day and that she felt delighted though a “little crazy with so many emotions”.

Meeting with Sandro Rosell

After receiving the 20 millionth ticket, Monica was given a tour of the stadium and was allowed to walk on the Camp Nou turf, where as a special treat, she was taken into the first team dressing room. Before the visit, president Sandro Rosell came down to meet Mònica and Julià in person and present them with a special commemorative shirt to honour the historic event.
