2026 World Cup (Official Thread)

It's like a battle if the 1700's shit heads.
Just sayin': Key conflicts and battles between Spain and France (i.e. 1600's and 1800's shitheads) include:
    • The Battle of Rocroi (1643): Fought during the Franco-Spanish War, a young French army decisively defeated the previously invincible Spanish Tercios (infantry squares). This French victory at Rocroi marked the beginning of the decline of Spanish military supremacy.
    • The Peninsular War (1808–1814): When Napoleon Bonaparte tricked the Spanish royals into abdicating and placed his brother Joseph Bonaparte on the Spanish throne, it sparked a bloody, nationwide rebellion. Spanish guerrillas, aided by British and Portuguese forces, ultimately drove the French out.

Erling Haaland's best World Cup souvenir? A dead raccoon from Texas

Rickie the Whiskey Raccoon is set to live a beautiful life.​

Erling Haaland has returned to Norway with fond memories and crushed dreams of a World Cup title. But he brought back something far more valuable and more representative of his weeks-long jaunt in the States: a taxidermied animal.

More specifically, a taxidermied raccoon sipping from a bottle of booze purchased from Wild Bill's Western Store in Dallas.
Haaland stepped off a plane in Norway sporting a spring 2027 Dolce & Gabbana Sicily tote under one arm and the dead animal under another, holding the raccoon around the middle like a beloved pet.

It didn't take long for the internet folk to track down the raccoon's source. While in Dallas earlier this month, known fashionista Haaland visited Wild Bill's where he purchased several cowboy hats, boots, and a longhorn belt buckle. But he failed to mention his furry stuffed buddy, which is listed on Wild Bill's website as a "Whiskey Raccoon" named Rickie for $750.

:lol:
