KANSAS CITY — It was some sight as the controversial “Ten German Bombers” song rang through the concourses at the AT&T Stadium.
A big group of England fans were bouncing along while singing but an even bigger crowd – mostly of bemused but fascinated locals – had gathered to film it.
Peeling away from the crowd a smiling Becky Williams, from nearby Arlington, told me she hadn’t realised the song was controversial but she didn’t regret getting it on camera.
“I can’t believe how crazy you all are. The last time I was here was for Beyonce and it was a very different crowd. I’ve never seen anything like it – and I love it.”
At a World Cup like no other, the booze-fuelled invasion of up to 15,000 England fans prepared to max out their credit cards appears to be capturing the imagination of the locals.
