Do Europeans know you can watch soccer without drinking beer? It's cheaper and healthier. Absolutely bizarre obsession you lot have with it.

Soccer without beer would be like college basketball without the gambling.

Europeans don’t watch soccer. They watch football.

It’s a communal thing. It’s more than just the sport it’s also about being out with other fans, showing support and usually friendly ribbing of the opposing teams fans from time to time.

That is how it was explained to me when I said something similar

beer is way cooler than popcorn
