S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
From the New York Times,
0:50
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I'm Natalie Kittroweff.
0:51
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is The Daily.
0:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Two weeks
1:02
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
into the World Cup,
1:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the most watched sports event on the planet has already broken records.
1:14
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
hitting its highest attendance ever and generating the most
1:18
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
goals scored in history.
1:20
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But one of the biggest stories of the tournament is happening off the field.
1:24
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I feel like I've been lied to my entire life about America.
1:27
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Like,
1:28
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I'm in Florida.
1:30
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This beach is insane.
1:32
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Like, just as good as Australian beaches.
1:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
As a wave of international visitors encounter an America they'd
1:38
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
never seen up close.
1:40
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
How do you think of America or Texas?
1:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Texas is good.
1:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Everything is big.
1:45
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Ranch.
1:46
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I love ranch.
1:48
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I taste it here.
1:49
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's delicious.
1:51
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And I take two bottles of foam.
1:52
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And Americans encounter them and open their arms to
1:57
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the world's soccer fans.
1:58
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's hard to sit there and think Americans are bad
2:02
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
because every single person I've met that's American has been
2:06
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
unbelievable.
2:07
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Today,
2:08
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
my colleague Tarek Panja explains the magic and the complexity of
2:13
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this moment.
2:13
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And Daily producer Anna Foley talks to two fans in the middle
2:17
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of it.
2:18
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's Monday,
2:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
June 29th.
2:23
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Tarek, welcome back to The Daily.
2:25
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's lovely to have you.
2:26
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Lovely to be back with you.
2:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So I have been watching the World Cup.
2:31
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It has been incredible,
2:33
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the competition itself,
2:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
but also the amazing scenes that we have seen from
2:38
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
fans from all over the world colliding with each other.
2:41
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And this is the thing that you told us would happen
2:45
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
when you were last on the show.
2:47
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
There is always this anticipation and anxiety that
2:51
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
leads up to the World Cup.
2:53
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And then...
2:55
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The games begin and it becomes this human experiment of what happens when
2:59
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you bring the entire world together around a sport.
3:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It does.
3:03
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And tournament after tournament,
3:05
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
it gives us this brief moment of uplift,
3:10
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of joy,
3:11
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of people coming together.
3:12
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And we're seeing it in places big
3:16
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and small here in the United States.
3:19
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And I'm so pleased that people in this part of the world are able to
3:23
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
experience this.
3:24
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And we should say this wasn't perhaps expected
3:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
because there was a lot of angst around some of
3:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the geopolitical tension that was hanging over this.
3:35
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I mean,
3:36
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
one of the host countries in this case,
3:37
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the United States,
3:38
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
is literally in the middle of a war right now.
3:40
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And the US has even had beef with...
3:43
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The co -hosts,
3:44
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Mexico and Canada.
3:45
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
One of them,
3:45
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Trump has threatened to bomb,
3:47
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and the other, he's threatened to turn into the 51st state.
3:49
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So this wasn't straightforward.
3:51
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You're right.
3:52
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This wasn't straightforward at all.
3:55
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
America's posture to the world has been one which
3:59
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
is kind of antithetical to a tournament that is supposed to bring the world
4:03
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
together and bring the world to it.
4:05
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This was a country that was talking about...
4:08
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
building walls,
4:09
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
reducing immigration,
4:11
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
sending people out.
4:12
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And for fans who were trying to come here,
4:16
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
getting visas was proving very difficult.
4:19
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Then there was the question of ICE enforcement at the
4:23
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
tournament, the possibility of that.
4:24
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Even on the cusp of the tournament,
4:26
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
we had the situation with the referee from Somalia,
4:30
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
a FIFA referee,
4:31
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
someone on the list to work at this tournament,
4:33
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
sent back to Turkey where he flew from.
4:37
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And that does give you a sense of dread if you are
4:41
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
not someone who is sure they're going to be able to get into this country.
4:45
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But tournament starts.
4:50
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And we've seen wonderful images.
4:53
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
We've heard wonderful songs.
4:55
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
We've all heard anecdotes of things that only the World Cup can bring.
5:00
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
What happens when the world comes together?
5:01
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And so,
5:02
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Tarek,
5:03
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
despite the baggage,
5:05
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the good feelings began almost immediately.
5:08
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So tell us how that happened.
5:11
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Like,
5:11
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
what actually shifted?
5:13
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
What shifted?
5:15
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The people.
5:16
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It starts with these teams,
5:18
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
48 teams,
5:20
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
in the biggest World Cup ever.
5:22
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And they have to choose base camps where the team will be staying
5:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
between the matches in these enormous stadiums in these cities.
5:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And where they tend to go are certainly not
5:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
big cities.
5:34
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I'll give you some examples.
5:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Spain
5:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
going to Chattanooga.
5:44
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Right.
5:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And there is a phenomenon there called Lamine watching.
5:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So Lamine Yamal is one of the most famous athletes in the world.
5:57
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
He is going to be the next massive
6:01
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
superstar after Messi and Ronaldo.
6:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And here we are seeing him go to a Walmart.
6:06
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Then
6:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
we have Erling Haaland.
6:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
who also has a claim to be one of the most famous people in the world.
6:16
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
He's with
6:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Norway in Greensboro.
6:23
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
How cool is it to have Norway in Greensboro,
6:26
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
North Carolina?
6:26
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's awesome.
6:27
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's epic.
6:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But the best example,
6:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the one that is almost the cutest,
6:34
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
is what happened when the Algerian
6:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
team arrived in Lawrence,
6:41
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Kansas.
6:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They prepared by getting the marching band of the University
6:52
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of Kansas to learn the national anthem of Algeria.
6:56
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I want to say thank you to Team Algeria for
7:00
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
choosing our hometown,
7:01
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Lawrence,
7:02
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Kansas, to come here.
7:04
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And so welcome.
7:06
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This,
7:07
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I believe it's a college town,
7:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
would never have had anything approaching this in
7:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
terms of a global event.
7:14
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So far, everybody here has been very friendly and very welcoming,
7:18
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and I'm really glad Algeria is going to be here.
7:21
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And one,
7:22
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
two, three, viva l 'Algier!
7:24
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You see local people dressed in the Algeria
7:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
jerseys.
7:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They are all rooting for this Algerian team.
7:32
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So I love to support them,
7:34
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you know, especially since they're in Lawrence,
7:36
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you know, I'll support them.
7:45
S…
Speaker 7 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Right.
7:45
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
OK, so you start to have this mutual excitement bubbling up on
7:50
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
both sides,
7:50
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the teams and the Americans that are receiving them.
7:53
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And then there's a next wave that comes,
7:57
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
right, when the fans of these teams begin to arrive.
8:01
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Talk to me about that.
8:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Now,
8:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this is my favorite part.
8:05
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is where fans from every
8:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
corner of our world arrive full of hope.
8:14
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
full of cheer and just ready to have fun meeting each
8:18
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
other and showing their colors,
8:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
showing their songs.
8:23
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And we've seen that.
8:24
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
We've seen images of...
8:27
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The famous or now famous Norwegian Viking Road taking
8:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
over New York and New Jersey,
8:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
including an escalator where
8:37
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you have Norwegian fans sitting down and rowing
8:41
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
as it takes them into the subway system.
8:43
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Yeah.
8:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
There are buses
8:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
that have been organized by the city of Dallas to take
8:52
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
fans to various points of interest.
8:55
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
In Norway.
8:57
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
We have nothing like this.
8:58
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is too much.
8:59
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I love it.
9:01
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But the one that's proved more popular than most has
9:05
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
been the trip to Bucky's.
9:07
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You're never going to believe this,
9:08
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
guys. This is a gas station.
9:11
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This goes on for miles and miles and miles.
9:14
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Got to get to Bucky's.
9:15
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I agree with that strategy.
9:17
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And the guys behind the counter,
9:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
like, they do a sing -song.
9:21
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
What is this place?
9:22
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's staying here forever.
9:23
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
We've also had all of these stories of fans,
9:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
whether they're French,
9:27
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Japanese,
9:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
or from anywhere else,
9:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
trying American food and actually liking it.
9:35
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Hot French fries in a chocolate milkshake.
9:38
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
That shouldn't work,
9:39
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
but that's actually really good.
9:41
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Texas barbecue seems to be a big hit at the moment.
9:45
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Amazing!
9:46
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I love it!
9:49
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The Philly cheesesteak.
9:50
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
A national delicacy.
9:52
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Yeah,
9:52
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
a national delicacy.
9:54
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I love beef,
9:55
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I love cheese, so yeah,
9:56
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
it's a perfect combination.
9:57
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And then...
10:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Scotland.
10:03
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
What can we say
10:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
about the tartan army?
10:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The name the Scottish fans are best known by.
10:13
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
What's been the most Bostonian thing you've seen or witnessed?
10:15
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's going to be Samuel Adams.
10:17
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
A couple of the guys don't like it,
10:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
but I think it's quite nice.
10:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They hadn't been to the World Cup since 1998.
10:24
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Right.
10:25
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And they really have made up for lost time,
10:27
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
haven't they?
10:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The Bostonians are something special,
10:30
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
honestly.
10:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The people of Boston will never forget
10:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the days the Tartan army invaded.
10:39
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
their city and obviously
10:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
drank the city dry but all in good cheer
10:48
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
we went from regular boston to all of a sudden party boston 24 7.
10:52
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
i know two words yankees
10:56
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
suck the scots making up for lost time is going to be one
11:01
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of the stories of the world cup
11:06
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Scotland did,
11:07
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
unfortunately,
11:08
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
just officially get kicked out of the World Cup this past weekend,
11:12
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
but they clearly left an impression.
11:14
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I mean, it was so pronounced,
11:16
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this love story between these Scottish fans and the Bostonians that
11:20
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
received them, that I think the Boston Globe literally dedicated a full page in
11:24
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the newspaper just thanking them for visiting.
11:27
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They did indeed,
11:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and now the Scots have a tradition for this.
11:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The way the fan culture works is be loud,
11:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
be fun,
11:35
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
drink all of the beer,
11:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
but leave the people happy you were there.
11:39
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This was a culture that was created almost as an opposition to
11:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the hooliganism.
11:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
That was around English football and English fans in the 80s and 90s.
11:50
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I had no idea.
11:51
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
That's so interesting.
11:51
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And it's not just the Scots.
11:54
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You can't manufacture some of these meetings.
11:57
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They are chance meetings.
11:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And we're seeing this in a way that perhaps
12:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
we were not expecting because of the sensation
12:07
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
or the feeling around the U .S.
12:09
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Right.
12:10
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And so these international fans.
12:12
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They're being exposed to parts of America that they may never have seen otherwise.
12:16
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And for Americans,
12:18
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you do see people trying to show their most
12:23
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
open selves.
12:23
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I think there's also the inquisitiveness.
12:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
People want to know about each other.
12:30
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And there's a pride as well.
12:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Say, look,
12:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this is our town.
12:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is who we are.
12:35
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And we want to show our best face.
12:38
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It also feels significant that this is happening at the same time
12:42
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
that the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary.
12:46
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And some of those official celebrations have become very tied
12:50
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
to President Trump,
12:51
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and they've become contentious in some cases for that reason.
12:56
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And then at the same time,
12:58
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you have this other celebration that's happening all across the country
13:02
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
that also feels like it's saying something important about
13:06
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the United States and its identity.
13:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Yeah, it tells us that this country is a patchwork
13:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of people and it was built on everybody.
13:17
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is an immigrant nation.
13:18
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The World Cup has shown it to be so.
13:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Not only are the fans coming from overseas to support their
13:25
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
teams, the entire diaspora of these teams is also
13:29
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
behind them.
13:30
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I met a guy who was Jordanian.
13:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And what's your name,
13:35
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
sir? My name is Farouk or Fred.
13:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This man called Farouk.
13:38
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I moved to the state 46 years ago.
13:40
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
46 years ago?
13:42
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Yes.
13:43
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's a split love.
13:44
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I love America more than anything.
13:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And he just could not tell me how much he loved America.
13:50
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's the one that gave me the opportunity.
13:53
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It gave me everything.
13:55
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
My kids,
13:56
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I have three boys and a girl,
13:57
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
they're all successful.
13:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
He was beaming about what America gave to him.
14:01
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But Jordan,
14:02
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
it's my love.
14:03
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But he also said,
14:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I love Jordan.
14:06
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Oh my God,
14:08
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this is the proudest moment of my life.
14:10
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Really?
14:11
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
For a small nation of ours,
14:13
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you cannot believe how proud we are.
14:15
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I am so proud that my country has
14:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
made the World Cup.
14:20
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I came to the first game and I'm in the second game,
14:22
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
then I'm going to go watch.
14:24
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
He was off to Dallas next to see them against Lionel Messi.
14:27
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Every day of the week,
14:28
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
God bless America.
14:29
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
God bless everything about this place.
14:31
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And God bless my nation,
14:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Jordan.
14:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Thank you, Farouk.
14:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So you can have that duality.
14:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's also what it's shown.
14:37
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You can be two things.
14:39
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You don't have to lash yourself to one flag or to the mast of
14:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
one idea.
14:44
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Right.
14:45
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And in many ways,
14:46
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this is kind of the Diaspora World Cup.
14:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Off the field and on the field,
14:51
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the word diaspora has been said over and
14:56
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
over about this World Cup.
14:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But with that...
15:00
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
a degree of complexity.
15:02
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It is not a seamless thing.
15:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This can sometimes be difficult.
15:07
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Just talk about that side of things.
15:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
What exactly you mean by that?
15:11
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The most obvious case has to be that of
15:15
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Iran.
15:16
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is a team I've been following now for months,
15:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
since the start of the war.
15:22
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This team has faced hardships unlike any other.
15:26
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is the first time a team participating at the World Cup has
15:30
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
been in conflict,
15:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
military conflict,
15:33
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
with a host nation.
15:35
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Right.
15:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
That has struck us here,
15:38
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
too.
15:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I mean, the complications around the Iran team has been this major story of the World
15:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Cup for many reasons,
15:43
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
right? Yeah.
15:44
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And the fans have had their own kind of hardships.
15:48
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
because of the feeling towards the
15:52
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
government in Iran,
15:54
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the love of country in that context,
15:57
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and the love of team.
15:59
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Do we support this team?
16:01
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Who does this team represent?
16:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And it has split the Iranian community somewhat.
16:06
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I think most Iranians remain firmly
16:11
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
supportive of the team on the field.
16:14
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But I've spoken to so many people who are...
16:18
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
trying to find ways to support the team,
16:21
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
but also in a way...
16:23
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
protest or find a way of opposing the government
16:27
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
back home.
16:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You're saying this really big Iranian community
16:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
in the United States is itself in conflict over how to
16:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
relate to their own team,
16:38
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
right?
16:39
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Because they have such a conflicted relationship to their government.
16:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And the idea of how to support them is presenting all
16:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of these conundrums for these people.
16:48
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It does.
16:49
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
On the most extreme edge of this.
16:51
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
are people who simply will not support the team and say,
16:55
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this is a propaganda tool of the government in Tehran.
17:00
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is not the Iranian team.
17:01
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But it's the majority in the middle.
17:04
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They're the ones,
17:05
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I think, that are finding it the hardest because they
17:09
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
do love this team.
17:10
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They do love their country as well.
17:13
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So how do you support them?
17:15
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So we're almost seeing.
17:18
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
kind of the internal divisions of the Iranian opposition,
17:21
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Iranian politics writ large,
17:24
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
around the outskirts of a World Cup
17:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
stadium in Los Angeles.
17:31
S…
Speaker 5 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Right.
17:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You're seeing this internal struggle of this...
17:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Diaspora play out live in front of us,
17:40
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
in the stadiums,
17:41
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
outside them,
17:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
this internal debate inside of a community over how to relate to
17:47
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
their team,
17:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
it's all there in public.
17:50
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's all there in public and it's all in the face of those players.
17:54
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So when the Iranian national anthem plays...
17:58
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
You hear widespread booing,
18:01
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
jeering across the stadium.
18:02
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But when the team then takes to the field,
18:05
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
it's like a home game.
18:07
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
What
18:12
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
we are seeing in real time is a mashup of nationalism,
18:16
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of identity,
18:17
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of patriotism,
18:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of a sense of people trying to
18:23
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
work out who they are,
18:26
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
what they want.
18:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and what their future holds all around this international
18:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
soccer tournament.
18:33
S…
Speaker 6 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Well,
18:37
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Tarek, thank you so much for being here.
18:39
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Nice to be with you again.

That's Axle,
19:11
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Loop, Lutz,
19:12
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
SalCal.
19:13
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This one's like medium hard.
19:16
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The answer is figure skating jumps.
19:20
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Now,
19:21
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
what if I gave you 16 different terms and you figure out how they come together
19:25
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
into four different groups?
19:26
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
If you're up for the challenge,
19:28
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
you'll want to check out Connections Sports Edition.
19:30
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
It's a new daily game for sports fans.
19:33
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
There'll be some that are going to stump you,
19:35
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
some that make you laugh,
19:36
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
and some that remind you when you were a kid watching sports for the first time.
19:46
S…
Speaker 3 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
As we said before
19:50
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the break, the team in arguably the most complicated place in this World Cup
19:54
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
is Iran.
19:55
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
The team is playing in a host country that's in open conflict.
20:00
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
with theirs.
20:00
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And now the whole world's watching as this fragile ceasefire gets
20:04
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
tested again and again.
20:06
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
One of our show's producers,
20:09
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Anna Foley,
20:10
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
spent time with a couple of lifelong fans of the Iranian team just
20:14
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
hours before Iran played their first game.
20:17
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
They talked about what all this is like this year and the
20:21
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
complex business of sorting out national pride and fandom in
20:25
S…
Speaker 4 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
the middle of war.
20:26
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Is there anything you miss from Iran?
20:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Of course.
20:33
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This is Farhad.
20:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Tell me something.
20:35
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Okay, people,

20:44
S…

people,
20:45
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
very hospitable,

S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
caring,
20:50
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
full of love.
20:52
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I've been a third of my life over there and
20:57
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
two -thirds here.
20:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Believe it or not,
20:59
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
I remember the first one -third.
21:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
To me here,
21:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
time flies.
21:08
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Farhad came to the U .S.
21:09
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
from Iran 47 years ago.
21:11
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Back then,
21:12
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
he'd been trying to get a visa for years.
21:14
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But
21:18
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
nothing seemed to work.
21:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
This was right before the Iranian revolution.
21:22
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
A lot of other people were trying to get visas around the same time.
21:25
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
One day,
21:27
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
he showed up at the embassy.
21:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
There were thousands
21:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
of people there.
21:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
Chances seemed slim he was going to be able to get his paperwork.
21:36
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
But then he heard a man call his name.
21:39
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
And I was sort of surprised.
21:40
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
No microphone,
21:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
no speaker,
21:43
S…
Speaker 1 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
nothing.
21:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
He just yelled it and I happened to be right there.
21:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Why Everyone Cares About This World Cup)
So he handed me my passport and I didn't even know what that meant.
21:51
