Latvian ICE Hockey Part 3: Why Latvians are the BEST fans in the world and how you can be too!

You are always fascinating and guaranteed to put a smile on my face, thank you!

Hilarious video, as always. And very cute face paint. 🙂

This video convinced me that Latvia does have the best fans in the world 🌍. Who else would present flowers to the team that they beat. (Hint): not the USA. Hey, the top four teams from each group advance: so if Latvia wins against Slovakia tomorrow, they will move into fourth place (third place if the USA 🇺🇸 loses to Kazakhstan, please no). Slovakia plays Sweden 🇸🇪 on Tuesday. There’s still hope for Latvian🇱🇻 fans. Sarauj. Update on this comment: since Latvia’s win over Slovakia was in overtime, they earned fewer points than from goals scored in regulation. Latvia needs to win in regulation time tomorrow and Slovakia needs to lose in regulation time for Latvia to advance. 🌸 🌺 💐 🌸 🌺 🌹

I have a Latvija hockey jersey mom got me when I was a kid when Latvija was doing well in the winter olympics, and we aren't even an ice hockey family

I'd say the advice #1 is - support your team no matter what. Even if it loses, of course you get sad, but try not to be butthurt about the team.

Yeah the past two games have really been an exercise for Latvia and fans of resilience 🥲
