my one Mexico World Cup story is that I was on a summer exchange program in a city in Mexico in 2002 when the US beat Mexico in the knockout rounds in the World Cup
everyone on the trip semi-seriously discussed if we should try to find Canadian flags to put on our backpacks the next day

I have tremendous envy of any Americans who were knowledgeable enough about global soccer at the time who traveled to Mexico for the 1986 World Cup. If I had some sort of weird hipster Time Machine, this would be one of my top things to experience. Must have been awesome.

Over the last few days, my feed has been full of videos of fans from across the globe having a blast in Mexico. It’s what the tournament should be.
I can’t see that happening here in the states.
