12. Soccer hooligans!!

Saturday

The Scot supporters in the crowd and the Scottish team themselves looked like soccer hooligans “straight from central casting.” And the Scot players seemed to really enjoy just slamming into the other team’s players. I saw so many slow-motion Scot players flying thru the air and falling down onto the pitch with twisted expressions, it became comical.

I’ve been watching a lot more soccer than I expected to.
