World Cup Update

Tickets are in hand!  Going to the USA vs. Slovenia game on Friday the 18th in Johannesburg.  Still trying to figure out what other games I'll be able to see in person, but even if I only go to one it will be great.

USA-England is sold out, but to give you a sense of how into it people are here, this is from an English member of the Swaziland ex-pat community:


Now that the tickets are in hand, it's time to find some over-the-top USA gear.

  3. " ......and yes, Mexican dishes will be accepted as American for this night only. "

    Is trying to pass off Mexican food as American food a big problem in Swaziland, or just a localized problem at The Old Barn?

  4. Wear some colonial garb and carry a musket (I'm sure that will be popular for a number of reasons). When we win - and we will - it will be wonderful. Bigelow
