People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

When you drop everything to fly halfway around the world to warch grown men in shorts run around and chase a ball for 90 minutes, then drink all the beer in a given area.

In the article I read they compared the drinking in the days around the scottish game to the drinking in the 4th july weekend and the scots massively won.

What article? I must've missed that one... but it's still not apples to apples... because a lot of people still work day of 4th of July, don't take that time off to celebrate like people on holiday for the world cup do.

I'm not doubting the answers, mind you, just the validity of the test itself.

It was a dutch article where they interviewed some pub owners in Boston. Probably more people have the day off on 4th of july then there are scots in Boston for the world cup..
