Last month my sister and I were at Fenway Park in Boston for a Redsox game. There was a Scottish family, who lives in London, sitting in front of us. They were on vacation and this was their first baseball game. We had a blast with them. We were explaining the rules of the game and telling them about each player who came up to bat. This family sang all the songs and were having so much fun. We had such a wonderful time with them; so much laughter!

One of the best baseball games I've seen was when the Red Sox played a two game series with the Yankees in the London stadium, and the place was filled completely up. The British accent of the announcers was real nice to hear, and they were explaining the rules to everyone in the stadium, who were totally into it. The game's score was basically a football score, because many home runs were being hit due to the stadium being not actually being built for baseball, and having a very small outfield. The final score was like 23-21, Yankees. Go Yankees!

I am a USA citizen whose prime language is English. I cannot speak multiple languages but do know some French and some Spanish. I have friends and family who can speak fluently in three different languages. Some English is their prime language, some Iranian, some Spanish, some Vietnamese, some Polish, some Japanese and some Russian. So it is common for me to hear different languages everyday. Sometimes I learn a little of their prime language, but I really can't speak any of them fluently. But, it sure is fun trying!

Got to get the freedom Yankee flag selling to rub it in the face of the crown an the best part is yeah we get to do that one time a year but that's technically not only the patriotic American holiday if you really think about it. 😂 So we really be rubbing it in the face of the crown pretty much yearly I think we have at least for patriotic holidays in America. And then us in the South we have Southern Independence Day which is really from the revolutionary war days but attempting to get independence the second time really didn't work out so we still celebrate it for first win of independence.

It really depends on where you at. I think if you tend to live in a more rural area where the people tend to be more conservative you would definitely see a American flag. And if they're super conservative you will see more than just one flag you will see an American flag the don't tread on me with the rattlesnake and if you're in the South you're guaranteed to see the rebel flag from 1860-1865. Really depends on where you're at though. Like me I live in what I think is a pretty conservative area. Now when you get closer to town sure there may be some progressive, liberals and there have their rainbow flag. But it definitely depends on where you're at. And if you're hoa it depends on how that the government body is. Which if they got a governing body when we already have a governing body they're obviously power hungry and probably are going to be strict like they tried to play one world war II vet and tell him he couldn't have an American flag flying on his property. My man's won't having that shit understandable so.

Never had problems with friendly americans too. Im in canada (Québec, the french-speaking place), so I'm used to north-east USA states (Vermont, NY, Maine), so those living there can go outside USA easily, because they're a few hours (or minutes even) drive from the border, so they don't need expensive flight to get outside. I was even served in french in some places when I went there, so another stereotype busted (dumb americans speaking only one language), and they knew much about Canada. Have a nice day & end of trip.

Along with all of the touristy stuff that you can see, a drive across a State or two can show you a glimpse into how we live if you take the time to get off the freeways and highways. Along with the 63 National Parks, there are over 6,000 State Parks, 85 National Historic Sites, and 2,600 National Historic Landmarks. It’s easy to see why it takes many people a lifetime to say that they have seen it all and been everywhere.

James some things Europe should know. Many Americans cannot even afford to see all of the states let alone afford to travel to Europe. Why would we, given how we are looked down upon by most of Europe despite the fact that our taxes go for their protection as in military bases around the world. Seems many countries feel and I guess rightfully so that you speak their language while there. So, you learn a language for a one- time use?

Jeez, relax, will ya? I visited 5 countries in Europe last year. Didn't speak the language in any of them and really wasn't expected to. English is the world's second language. No one "looked down" on me. I had a wonderful time. But if you're still leery of Europe you could always try South America or East Asia or other fantastic places. I traveled around Indonesia, speaking only English, friendliest country I've been to. You might want to come out from behind those defenses and live a little.

You mentioned the percentage of the population with a passport being at about 50%. I just looked up the UK percentage as a comparison, which is at around 86%, so a bit of a difference. But, break it down by actual numbers and not percentages. If 50% of the US has a passport, that's roughly 166 Million citizens with a passport. If 86% of UK citizens have a passport, that's roughly 57 Million citizens with a passport. So more than twice as many US citizens have a passport compared to UK citizens. But even that's not really an apples to apples comparison. So I've always viewed that stat being pointed out by Europeans as a kind of self centered way of looking down their noses at Americans and thus making themselves feel as if they're 'superior' and that's a way of making them feel better about themselves.

Good point. Another good point is boundaries. Canada does not require a passport. Mexico does. The other borders are oceans, big oceans that cost a lot to traverse by air or sea.

About the Flag; There are certain places and establishments that are expected to fly the flag. Every downtown in every city big or small is usually overburdened with flags, neighborhoods around military installations, government buildings, police stations, every household that has ever had anyone who served in the military past or present will fly a flag as will his neighbors so they can fit in, every public education facility including sports stadiums. and so on. It's gotten a bit redundant and disrespectful when the flag appears on babies' diapers. I'd like to see our flag honored more and see fewer examples of disrespect.

(U.S.) Football games have a tailgating party culture, tailgate referring to the tail end of a vehicle (mostly vans and pickups). Fans arrive hours before the game and have parties in the parking lots outside the stadium. Professional and major collegiate (known as Division 1) games can have quite elaborate set ups, including ones that are commercial/pay tailgates. Many tailgates continue after the game especially if the home team wins.

You have taught me a few things, I knew there were islands in the English Channel, but I didn't know the names, and when I learned you lived on Jersey, I didn't realize how close it is to France. Basically history is just very interesting. So, prior to learning this, when I heard the word Jersey, I thought of both New Jersey, USA, and of course Jersey cows. At one point we had cattle, and I hate cows except on a grill.) Anyway, there is a different jersey that comes to my mind now a days: "Jersey barriers", concrete barriers on freeways. Named "Jersey", I believe, that the first appeared in New Jersey.

It can be expensive depending on the rivalry and it will be extremely loud. I suggest an SEC (Southeastern Conference) game. The traditions go back to the late 1800's. What makes college games so special is the loyalty of the fans. Alumni and students are usually fans for life and many families have attended the same University for over 100 years. Other people are just loyal to their state and border states have had rivalries that date back to the civil war. Tailgating is also much better at college games. People gather the morning before a game and have cookouts (and beverages) before the game. If a team beats a rival in a close exciting finish, sometimes the crowd rushes the field after the game and tears down the goal posts. Check out the KZbin video from 2023 of Missouri beating K-State with a walk-off record setting field goal.

I, a mom and my daughter are going to a college football game. You were here during the summer when our patriotic holidays are. Memorial Day is when we honor people who died serving our country is the beginning of summer. July 4th is in summer. Labor Day is the end of summer . Lots is patriotic days in the summer. That’s why you saw so many flags.

I believe you all were here just before the 4th of July, so yes, the stores had a lot of USA merchandise. It was for the holiday celebration. Yes, folks do frequently have flags, even when its not a holiday celebrating something to do with our country like Memorial day or Labor day. Most of us dont fly flags daily, and it is super inappropriate to actually wear depictions of the flag other than a small pin. Its okay to wear red white and blue with stars on it, but not the entire flag.

I think the one thing Americans take very seriously is, having a good time. Whether it's sports, a National Holiday, or a vacation we want to make sure we have a fun time, by making sure we have good food, drinks and friends on hand.

Florida is one major battleground state. It’s always like that. the thing is that south Florida and Central Florida are constantly flip-flopping between candidates every election cycle. That leaves both Orlando and Miami really stuck in the middle as these two cities actually count for the most electoral college votes. It’s always the same with the candidates arriving at different dates usually doing speeches within Orlando then leaving for Miami immediately after that rally speech. They both usually talk to the governor trying to get him to side with their party too. Neither really has any advantage as it’s not the time to vote but it gets people talking.

3:05 You do need to be careful when saying "mate". In America that means your "lover". So if you say, "Can you help me, mate?" to a girl you might get slapped. 9:30 Any seemingly Patriotic hostility is just a friendly disagreement. There are a very small number who will get physically hostile but those are usually unhealthy people. Very rare to get so upset. And it is mostly like friendly banter but at parties we like to keep that to a minimum just so everyone is having fun.

I think the patriotic stuff was around before, but it really got more prominent after 9/11. I'm not a fan, and find it embarrassing. I don't hate the US. I feel kinda proud when Brits and others actually love parts of our country, and I love a lot the US in general, but I kinda like aspects of other countries bettwr or around the same. Like the Nordic countries have way better policies than we have here or even the UK.

You're right. It wasn't hostile at all when RFK was assassinated, or Watergate under Nixon, or the first Bush, or when Bill Clinton got impeached, or the entire war in Iraq under the second Bush.

@jishani1 you have a misunderstanding of the meaning of hostile. Being a citizen of the US since I was born in 65 I have never experienced a separation between Americans. JFK AND RFK were assinated by certain groups. Watergate was Nixon's doing and he was man enough to step down. What had the first Bush done exactly? Clinton was impeached for cheating on his wife, that brought no hostility nor was he removed. War with Iraq....they bankrolled the Taliban and Bin Laden to attack America. Obama what oh entertainers supported him, wouldn't be the first time Entertainers supported a Presidential prospect. Funny you say all these things but forget that the and only President hyped up his followers and told them to attack the Capital because he couldn't accept defeat. He caused an insurrection that day. Trying to overturn an election because he lost. He creates hostility between the citizens, no one else just him. Maybe you should gather your few brain cells and listen carefully as someone reads you a history book. Until then please may I suggest you keep your misinformation to yourself. By the way if you think you can degrade or insult me as you think you've done, you have never been more wrong in your life. I come from a long line of strong women and not a one of them would ever take crap from someone like you or anyone else.
