Since last posting, we have been to the France v Mexico game and are preparing for the US v Slovenia game. The outfits for the France v Mexico game have been the best so far. I thought that topping the "You can't Dutch this" shirt at the Netherlands game would be a tough feat, but then we saw the Mexicans.
1. Multiple Thierry Henry jokes. People with Henry masks, jerseys, etc. All with GIANT hands with a soccer ball attached. Awesome. He didn't even play that game!
2. The Mexican headdresses were super elaborate. How they got those on the plane is a mystery to me.
3. Luchadore masks. Normally I would think this would be uncomfortable to wear for a whole game, but thanks to the cold, they looked smart.
4. Irish fans dressed as leprechauns. I was thinking I should have brought an Irish flag to the game...but forgot.
There were also foozeball tables and free beer and parties everywhere in Polokwane. Incredible atmosphere.
Snack update: Ghost Pops are really good. They are like spiced super lightweight corn snacks. Delicious, melt in your mouth snack attack. I think Ghost Pops are my #2 after Biltong.
God Bless America, and God Bless the families of these piss poor referees, because their lives may be in danger after some of these shitty calls.
