I am, now that I’ve purchased these soccer-ball-themed napkins. Oh, and these soccer pistachios and soccer pretzel balls.
For those who live under a rock (or in the US), the World Cup starts tonight in Germany. Switzerland is taking part for the first time since 1994, and the merchandisers are finally cashing in. Also, giant TV screens are going up all over the city, so the Swiss games can be watched in large, beer-soaked crowds (the way Scott likes to). I suspect our normally quiet city is about to see a little rowdiness, especially if Switzerland manages to win a few games. I assume that me eating soccer pistachios while I watch their matches will help them out. Or better, I could burn some soccer candles.
It’s so totally cool that the Swiss are finally un-crappy enough to be able to participate!
Those little soccer ball pretzels are goooood! Best consumed along with 6 episodes of sex in the city and at least one cosmo.
