Okay, it seems like this whole Football thing is over. Or as Europe calls it: whatever, that ball has a funny shape. Sure, there might be better ideas than hosting an event with 25,000 visitors in the middle of a pandemic but, well, every generation and every culture has their own «bread and circuses», so no judgement.
