This reminds me of a time in the US when I was talking about the Marines in England and an American friend said, "Oh so you decided to get Marines now too." They were gobsmacked to learn that Marines were not an American invention.

By how much will travel to the U.S. from the U.K. increase when the U.S. wins the World Cup? It will be the only opportunity that the citizens of the UK will ever get to see the World Cup trophy up close :dunno:
