USA vs. Australia World Cup Game

Last night I went to the Marly Bar and watched the US get killed by Australia in Rugby! Let's just say that the American team looked very unskilled next to the much more infamous Australia team. It was really cool seeing the bar atmosphere of a rugby game though. All the girls and guys got together and split jugs of beer and cheered on the Australian team. It reminded me of when we go to bars and watch football and baseball games. It's a chill atmoshpere, but it can definitely get rowdy! My friend, Harry, was telling me how people had bet that the USA would lose by 62.5 points and we only lost by 62 points. It's crazy how close people predicted the game would turn out! Toward the end of the game, we kind of zoned out because it was very obvious that the Australian team was going to be the winner. However, I think it would be weird if the American team was better because we don't really play a lot of rugby in the states. I was actually surprised to know we even had a rugby team! Now I know that they are called the Eagles :) I learned something new about America while watching Australian rugby! Yay!
