Somehow NASCAR is more entertaining than the FIFA World Cuck.

Show me on your “partner” where the World Cup’s overwhelming success hurt you?

MAGA South African here, we arent butt hurt today. Thanks to Musk attending the recent game just now, we won.

free refills on coffee, soda, iced tea. Free ice water. And free ice dispensers when you get your soda and at hotels.

Free chips, salsa / warm bread at many places. Tourists loving ranch dressing on the side.

Air Conditioning is common and free even in cheap hotels. Hotel room sizes are way bigger than European hotels rooms.

BBQ is cheap and good. Other places have huge portion sizes.

The size of some of our stores like Bass Pro Shop, supermarkets.

How easy it is to road trip. Automatic cars, massive multi-lane highways, easy to find, cheaper gas along with free and clean bathrooms at many places like Buc-ee's. Convenient drive-throughs.

How friendly and welcoming many people are. Red Sox realize Scotland is playing in the World Cup in June in Boston so let's have a Scottish Day at Fenway Park. Many Americans are willing to talk to strangers and can be incredibly kind. Many Europeans have a guarded reserve about them.

Late night eats going to Waffle House at 2 am or other places.

God bless the World Cup and GOD BLESS AMERICA!

The best of America is Bucees and Bass Pro Shops? Good grief, no wonder the US has become such a trash country.

I'd rather have affordable health care and high speed rail than diabetes and drive throughs.

Football fans will appreciate the World Cup. Others won't. This is nothing new in the world of sports and entertainment.

The WC is creating new American football fans and the international fans will go home to their countries and tell everyone they’ve been lied to about America by the press. What a coup for the U.S.

This is fantasy on your part. What you have been watching videos of some English guy eating at chipotle? There are Chipotles in England. These videos are just for clicks. 99% are making fun of the US or the viewers.

Foreigners are there to remind us we are not all about Donald Trump. Americans aren't all awful. We have terrible politics, but everyone appreciates a really nice gas station and bbq and very forward people.

The World Cup is going very well. And the US, Canada, and Mexico are all winning. Positive vibes everywhere.

Breaching the agreement we signed to host the World Cup is not giving positive vibes everywhere. Visas were not issued to most of the southern hemisphere. It’s nice all the white folks are having fun (and it’s not their fault they were allowed in) but our soft power is taking a beating globally.

You are just really wrong. After such depressing news every day all day since Trump has been re-elected, most people have been feeling really in the depths of despair in the US. Finally there is a bit of good news.

Spain (population 50 million and won the World Cup in 2010) vs. Cabo Verde, a small nation of islands off the coast of Central Western Africa, (population under 500,000) game was amazing for Cabo Verde. They tied Spain in no small part due to their goalie who made 7 amazing saves. The US just waived the visa application and fees for the goalie's mother so she could watch her son play in person in his next match. She is now in Miami.

In Lawrence, Kansas the city has adopted the Algerian team and been really supportive while they train there. The University of Kansas marching band spent weeks learning the Algerian national anthem, performing it live to surprise the team during an open practice session.

There are plenty of stories like this. Just because we have an orange ogre as President doesn't mean Americans are all evil.

She should have been there in the first place. Because we impose a prohibitive bond of $15,000 on the citizens of Cabo Verde, Vozinha's mom missed her son's Man of the Match performance, the best of his lifetime. We should have waived visa bonds for close family of the players before all this transpired. As it is, Hakeem Jeffries had to appeal to Rubio to get the waiver.

The goal keeper plays for a second division team in Portugal and makes around $50k a year. His mom works as a housekeeper making at most $500 a month. She didn't have a passport and there is no way could have afforded plane fare and hotel. And the immediate family members of players have been exempted from the $15,000 fee from the beginning. Following early pressure from FIFA to protect key participants, the U.S. administration explicitly exempted official players, coaches, support staff, and immediate relatives from having to pay this $15,000 bond from the very beginning of the World Cup planning phase. But they still had to have a valid passport, apply for visas and pay for flights and hotels.

The Capo Verde National Football Association paid for her flight, the State Department waived all visa paperwork fees and paperwork, and FIFA provided the mom with tickets.

So it really is an uplifting story.

This is straight from Vozinha: "“She didn’t manage to be here because of the visa. Because of the money you have to pay for the visa, we didn’t manage on time. I would like her to be here....”

Additionally, your claim that the exemption was there "from the very beginning of the World Cup planning phase" is false. The exemption was granted on May 13th, less than a month before the World Cup started (https://www.npr.org/2026/05/13/g-s1-121912/foreign-ticket-holders-world-cup-bonds). There are other inaccuracies and stretching of the truth/misrepresentations here, but it's too late in the night for me to fact check everything.

Your sad little bitter voice on this nondescript, far off corner of the internet, is a waste of your energy. There are reels from European visitors that overtly state that they feel lied to about what to expect America to be like. They’re here, and they’re totally enamored with our country and its people.

Because we’re bad ass! Those who spend their days shitting on this country and have zero patriotism, with this being our 250th, are a small and insignificant minority in this country. I’m sorry but you are. I’m sure you feel big in this little corner of the internet. Not so.

American people can be wonderful. No one is disputing this. That is the beauty of the stories coming out from foreigners enjoying themselves all over this country. We can all enjoy these stories.

Doesn't change the facts about our ridiculous, awful, terrible federal administration. You don't have to deny their missteps; we can still celebrate regular American people.
