I remember first coming to Germany in 1988, going out for a stroll in a suburb of Frankfurt on a Saturday afternoon and finding it a near-deserted ghost town, not even any traffic on the streets.

Then I ducked into a bar and found that the big Germany-Holland World Cup match was underway (Which the Dutch won)

I guess it is much the same in any American town during the Super Bowl or any Midwestern Town during the NCAA finals.

Eh eh, the ghost town thing must have been a somewhat distressing experience. I love Frankfurt, by the way.

You don’t have any memories of the Superbowl?
