The lack of real life team stuff makes sense for obvious reasons, but not even fake team sports jerseys and things. Seen a few being sold, but not many being worn. I own ONE sports jersey, which I bought for this ancient pic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it has a little maple leaf on it too??? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BilliJo Aldrin Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 21 hours ago, Persephone Emerald said: Games in which people kicked a ball around on a field have been around as long as there have been balls. Original football branched into Rugby and Football (aka Soccer) in England, then people originally from the British Isles migrated to Canada & from there introduced Rugby to the United States, which then created American Football. We all have a historical basis to call all these games "football", but Americans should have picked a different name when they took out the part where they kicked a ball around on a field. Yes but after every point score the .first thing they do is KICK THE BALL to put it back in play. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a surprisingly good selection of football uniforms, but none that I could see specifically for this round of the Euro Cup. On the other hand, if you're an Australian footie fan, you're set for life! I suppose it wouldn't be too hard to make the uniforms oneself. 5 hours ago, Ayashe Ninetails said: Speaking of fashion, though...I haven't seen much sporty gear in SL.

Can you pick your own # for the jerseys? I think I want to get one with a 34 on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rat Luv Posted June 30 Author Share Posted June 30 (edited) England are losing to Slovakia (I'm watching it in SL) and have had a goal disallowed... There are 11 minutes left but this might be the end...I think there might be 'griefing in the sandbox' later (IRL) ETA - ignore that, England scored...extra time! ETA - 2-1!

Phil Deakins Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Deep into added time (time added due to stoppages), England were a minute away from being knocked out. Then 2 minutes of playing time later (the last minute of added time and the first minute of extra time) we scored the winning goal! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 3am where I am so I'll have to just watch highlights on youtube. At noon? That would be crazier than calling "handegg"🏈 "football"⚽; matches start at 18:00 or 21:00, when most people are off work and can drink beer, of course! 😄 Not sure how you got noon, perhaps because that might be when tv programs start broadcasting preliminary shenanigans.

I live in a street with lots of pubs that all do "public viewing" outside, so I can even rely on the noise level outside to know when to switch on, no clock needed 😅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rat Luv Posted July 10 Author Share Posted July 10 (edited) I just checked out London City and Virtual Holland to see if I could find any fans excited about tonight's match! ⚽ But nobody in London seemed to care, and Virtual Holland was lagging badly and empty apart from one person...and then I fell in some water and couldn't get out because 'fly' is disabled 😐 But England vs Netherlands starts in just over an hour and a half...better find a low-lag bar to watch it in 👍 Edited July 10 by Rat Luv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
