"American Sports Fans Are MISERABLE!" (Plus World Cup UFO Predictions?!)

**Craig Carton** (0:09)
Yeah, 333 Carton Show, Big Mac.
Well, well, well. Yankees play tonight. Trying to take the series from Detroit, obviously. You've got World Cup Soccer. Buddy of mine went to a game at an LA, went to the Belgium-Iranian game. I don't have no idea who won. I can't name anybody on the other team.
But it's a buddy of mine in LA who has been to a bunch of big sporting events, huge sports fan as well, and came out of that game saying World Cup Soccer was the most fun sporting event he has ever been to in his life. And I'm like, I've never been to a World Cup game. But I started thinking about it. Remember my take on the World Baseball Classic where I was kind of envious and jealous that all those Latin American countries, your South American countries, et cetera. They just enjoy being at games far more than we do as Americans. At least that's the way it feels and looks right? Like they party, they have songs, they dress a certain way. You know, the girls will show with paint on their boobs and their asses hanging out. And you got voo-voo zealous and it's just a it's an event, right?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:21)
Yes.

**Craig Carton** (1:21)
And again, so I've never been to a World Cup Soccer game. I've been to soccer games, not a World Cup game. And my buddy on LA is like, I've been to a lot of like huge sporting events.
Nothing is good as going to a random non-descript can name a certain guy in either team.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:39)
Yeah, you're just going to be there.

**Craig Carton** (1:41)
But the experience of being there, the way the fans behave is intoxicating. And I'm jealous of that.
We suck, man. I got to be honest. Like, I love being an American, but we suck when it comes to how we behave and our output as fans at sporting events because half the time, if you're up there doing your thing, let's go Yankees and your wife's got her boobs hanging out with Yankee pinstripes painted on them and her ass is hanging out of her Daisy Dukes.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:13)
With motz on one and Rella on the other.

**Craig Carton** (2:16)
Bang! Exactly right. Like someone's gonna be like, could you sit down please? I can't see the field. I gotta be honest, as American sports fans, we suck. We do.
The Europeans and the Latin Americans and Southern Americans, they know how to go to sporting events.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:35)
Yeah, I guess.

**Craig Carton** (2:37)
Excuse you. I'm sorry?

**SPEAKER_3** (2:39)
You clearly did not watch last Friday's US game in Seattle. That was a party.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:46)
I think soccer fans, because I was going to say, I went to a local bar the first Friday night. To watch soccer? To watch soccer, and it was crazy.

**Craig Carton** (2:56)
The USA team?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:57)
No, I'm just saying, when I say crazy, no, it was for the Friday night game, USA vs. who would they play first?

**SPEAKER_3** (3:05)
They played...

**Craig Carton** (3:06)
Paranoid. It was so awesome, you don't even remember who they played.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:09)
But when they played Australia... Yeah, what a great day, I don't know who they played. They were in LA with a bunch of yuppies. But they went to Seattle, a true American crowd.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:17)
I can just tell you this, right?

**Craig Carton** (3:19)
A true socialist crowd.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:21)
They were having a viewing party, whatever, the bar was promoting the fact, they had it on a big screen the size of this wall, right? And I can just tell you, it wasn't crazy packed, but the fans that were there were actually insane.

**Craig Carton** (3:35)
Okay.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:36)
They were like, they threw beer on each other. They were like having fun.

**Craig Carton** (3:39)
Specifically the USA fans. Yeah.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:40)
No.

**Craig Carton** (3:41)
I'm asking, you might have been in the bar. No, it was the Belgium fans.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:44)
It was the Paraguay fans.

**Craig Carton** (3:45)
Maybe the Paraguay fans were like, we need a place to watch the game. Let's go Paraguay. I say para. You say guy.
Put it all together, Paraguay. I don't know.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:56)
Yeah, that's right. They chose a winery in Warwick.

**Craig Carton** (4:01)
Maybe.
I'm telling you, we suck. We're the worst.

**Chris McMonigle** (4:06)
And they were coming up with different ways to chant USA. It was like, USA.
I was like, what are you doing? He was like saying, he was trying to get everybody up. He was like, USA. I was like, USA.
