Yesterday, my good friend Daniella Smit planned an afternoon get together at Tonic in Time Square. She wanted her friends to support for the Dutch team to beat the Germans. The bar was packed with people wearing bright orange in honor of the Dutch flag. I am not Dutch, but I had to wear orange to show my support. As soon as the game started, everyone inside the bar kept on howling hoping to win for the Netherlands. In the first half of the game, Germany's Mario Gomez scored 2 goals for the team. All of a sudden the crowd became quiet and stared at the TV monitors. I am not a soccer expert, but the Dutch team played it safe. They didn't go for the attack to reach the goal. Every time a player tries to pass the ball near the goal, no one is there to receive it and aim for the score. In the end, my Dutch friends left the bar in despair. With this outcome, the Dutch were ousted in the 2012 Euro Cup. Speaking of fashion, people followed the dress code of wearing orange. I am so amazed they showed allegiance to their country by wearing orange. I had a great Wednesday afternoon. Thank God I decided to take the rest of the day off.
