For most child mascots, walking out onto the pitch with a professional footballer is a huge thrill – a genuinely unforgettable moment.There are always a few kids who get a bit nervous or overawed, of course – hearing the roar of the crowd greeting the players can make for an intimidating moment. There are very few kids who don’t feel some strong emotions either way.
Well, this lad doesn’t go with the crowd. This lad has reacted to the whole experience of being a child mascot with the cool nonchalance of an indifferent teenager. Just ask Barcelona’s star centre-back Gerard Pique – he’s been cruelly embarrassed as a result.
Ahead of Barca’s big Champions League clash with Bayer Leverkusen , Pique greeted his allocated mascot in the tunnel. The kid then asked who exactly he was – presumably crushing his soul in the process.
Yes, that’s right. Prior to a match in which he was playing, at the Nou Camp, in front of his teammates, Pique actually had to identify himself to a child. As humiliating as this must have been, he didn’t let him put him off – Barca won the match 2-1. full article/video
IT’S FUNNY AND ALL, BUT IT’S REALLY, REALLY IMPORTANT WE DON’T DETRACT VOTES FROM BERNIE
BY VOTING FOR DEEZ NUTS YOU’RE LITERALLY THROWING YOUR VOTE AWAY
PLEASE DON’T ACTUALLY VOTE FOR DEEZ NUTS
i love that we’re at the point that someone can say “if you vote for deez nuts you’re throwing your vote away, please don’t actually vote for deez nuts” and it’s like… a real situation we’re in here in 2015
It bothers me that a lot of people aren’t grasping the reality of Deez Nuts.
All giggles aside, this is showing what a joke our political system has become. A 15 year old can register as a presidential candidate. According to him, the paperwork didn’t even ask for an age. We need to set a higher bar for who we accept into the presidential race, a bar higher than Deez Nuts. So yes, Deez Nuts is a joke, he can’t really win for a myriad of reasons, but we as America should never forget Deez Nuts, to remind us of what a clusterfuck our political system can be.
I realize the seriousness of the situation, and the dire realities of American politics and the very real life-and-death consequences of government and office does indeed scare the hell out of me, believe me, the gravity is not lost
but i still can’t fucking believe that I literally read the sentence ‘we as America should never forget Deez Nuts’with my own two God-given eyes, andit was completely serious and relevant to my very own life
just. this existence is so wild and absurd I can’t believe we’re living it
Johan Cruyff is taken off the pitch by police in Barça v. Malaga [1977] for repeatedly opposing the ref’s decision. He was suspended for three matches for protesting against a handball that led to a goal.
