Something about the World Cup heightens the degree of macho blood in men’s blood.
Fights are common between friends and profligate amongst rival fans. Last night two Brits pummeled a fellow Teabag over whether the UK would knock Australia out of the competition. The Aussies’ win over Japan has increased the possibility of this match, however the Limey team has yet to score a goal, which makes the odds of the two nations meeting in a Kraut stadium about 50-1.
Stupid fight.
Even worse was the claim that two Thai men were shot dead for shouting too loud during a Ghana-Italy game. This news made the headlines throughout the world, although later the shooting was blamed on bad words passed between the deceased and the shooter about a young lady.
The shooter fled the scene, but the police have mobilized 1200 cops to scour the land for illegal gambling.
Of course the arrest of bookies will be the result of poor losers welching on their bets and gamblers will be grassed by bookies hedging their losses.
More madness to come.
