DE 2:0 PO

Peter & I spent a few hours today @ the Glockenspiel pub in St. Paul watching the Germany:Poland game in the group games for the European championship. It would have been more enjoyable if the TV hadn't repeatedly shut off. Including shutting off for one of the goals. The crowd roars in frustration for the 3rd of 4th time the t.v. goes blank. A couple minutes pass. Several men decide they need to pee. Silence in the pub. Then a woman's voice in the corner yells "It's 2:0!" There is a groan of joy mixed with anguish at the fact we can't see it. The fellows in the john hear us screaming, and figure Germany just scored a 2nd goal. Nope. We screamed in jubilation simply because the game came back on.

All in all, it was fun. A small hoard of German ex-pats made a lively group. Who needs the Olympics? UEFA & World Cup are where it's at.
