Vitesse supporter and music fanatic Rob has had a dream job at GelreDome for 25 years: ‘Employment contract signed by Karel Aalbers’

Rob van der Meiden pulls open a door in GelreDome on November 4, 2000 and almost collides with the then 18-year-old Britney Spears. She is waiting to go on stage for her show. “For minutes I stood about 30 centimeters behind her while she was in supreme concentration and did not notice me,” says the 60-year-old Arnhemmer, who has been working at the now 25-year-old stadium since day one.
