Apparently there’s some soccer thing going on in Europe right now. I would ask my Colombian roommate more about the “football” tourney he is watching so carefully, but it is just too hard to listen and not nod off. The only thing that can make soccer less exciting is when it’s women’s soccer. But the Europeans are taking a mud wrestling-style approach to the game right now.
The (unofficial?) Austrian and German women’s teams played in nothing but thongs yesterday, showcasing “das booben.” Austria won 10-5, a score which probably broke the scoreboard.
The Germans took defeat sportingly and joined their opponents for alcopops and dancing at a beach club alongside the Danube.
“I was supposed to hold the balls but I really have no idea how to do that,” said German keeper Jana Bach.
Wait, Reuters, is this a prank story?
