No American experience can be complete without staying at a Motel 6 right off the interstate in the hood

Imagine pre-social media and smart phones going back to Germany and explaining you saw Messi play in a 100,000 person stadium where a bald eagle was flying around in the middle of nowhere in Alabama and then had dinner at a gigantic gas station.

It's as if some Americans actually believe them that American sunsets are somehow superior or that a Waffle House breakfast tastes better than a good English or Scottish breakfast o

Their plate at breakfast is beans on toast and if they're lucky, a Scotch Egg. With tea and cream.

Well frick yeah some dude from Sunderland or Derry is going to shite bricks over IHOP or Waffle House. Ya Wanker.

Sometimes in America you have to make a decision. When it is the only motel with rooms and the top Google review describes it as "a toad hole," you just have to decide whether a bed makes that much difference.

Real mistakes of this kind are made while driving I-10 across Texas.

For the most part English soccer stadiums aren’t anything special.


Etihad stadium falls under this category but Anfield is special.

If you have not spent significant time in Europe I suppose their acting might seem genuine.


Well, I have and you're full of shite. The view of many there in Europe about American is genuine. They may not like the current state of affairs here, but many of the ones I've ever met are in awe of the US.

Friend, you need some new material 'cause this troll game is getting really old.

Skeptics in this thread say that no European would be fascinated by this and they are just pandering to us dumb Americans

I've never asked one, but I bet the fans of global teams are fascinated by the venue audio and video, not to mention ribbon boards lights and pyro. They don't have that in 98% of EPL/Champions stadiums. All their singing is fans, not the A/V we here crank to high heavens

It’s all BS. Just like the the reaction videos of people that have never seen a popular movie or listened to top 40 songs. Yeah, right.


You mean, they weren't really into Unchained Melody? One of the greatest songs of all time?

That there might be general unrest and rioting like with St. George of Fentanyl.


Yes I'm a US citizen.

That said, I think these World Cup fans are different. They seem like they’re genuinely just posting their experience rather than trying to manufacture some viral persona.

You might be right, but some of this seems feigned. You can see fireworks at European soccer matches. There are ginormous rest area/gas stations along the Autobahn in Germany with full-service restaurants and sparkling clean restrooms.

Montgomery has nice, safe sections. I'm sure he found a room.
