A friend from Europe and i went to a major sporting event in Canada,he wondered why the visiting team's fans were sitting side by side with the home team's fans i mentioned that it was no problem,he declared that over in Europe you were asking for trouble,let's say that you went with a couple of friends to a game in a jersey and your seat was among hundreds of fans from the other side...

    that's because Canada and the USA are civilized countries playing non-ridiculous sports.

    I heard that over in Europe they play a game where all they do for 90 minutes is kick around a ball and once a week or so, one of the teams will score a goal.

    they are asking for fan fights, making them endure such boredom.

    European beer is a lot stronger than American beer.

    If you think that's bad, you should see Mexico on hard liquor, they're crazy.

    I think a lot of it goes back literally to the Middle Ages, these countries went to war with each other so often like it was cool, I’m sure deep rooted hatred still runs through the blood of many a European
