German supporters left Boston shell-shocked on Monday after their World Cup squad fell to a scrappy Paraguay team in a penalty shootout during the Round of 32. The devastation, it seems, has broken even the team’s most optimistic and joyful supporter.
Freddy, or @FreddyLA7 as his handle would read, became the viral sensation of this World Cup. A wide-eyed German youngster, Freddy gained a (seemingly organic) following in the lead-up to the World Cup by posting his travels throughout the United States, discovering the innocent joys of late-night Taco Bell, diverse landscapes, and Ella Langley as he and his German buddies traversed the country.
Freddy’s X account skyrocketed in popularity as the month of June went on, and the anonymous German started meeting with the likes of JJ Watt and NASA astronauts, and seemingly any other person or brand looking for an instant injection of free publicity.
But now, fewer than 24 hours of Germany’s defeat, Freddy’s account is nowhere to be found. It appears as if Germany’s early exit from the World Cup officially broke Freddy.

He likely wanted to protect himself from doxxers and other criminals. I can't blame him with all the nutcases here, and in Germany. I'll never knock anyone for trying to protect themselves from becoming a victim.
What - Germany hasn’t won a title in over 30 years?
No one, no sane person, blames him. The first time I heard the term "influencer" I was disgusted that anyone would want such a moniker.
Those that do have no place in my world.
Life is too short to be polluted with their crap.
G-d bless Freddy, and I hope you are eventually one of the 6% in Germany that have air conditioning.
He posted a comment he was being targeted by people harassing him for his positive remarks about the US and looking for old posts in which he may have not been politically correct.
It looks like he wants a time out.
‘Influencer’ is just a word.
Do you have a problem with Tom Selleck and William Devane promoting precious metals? They are ‘influencers’ without the moniker.
‘Influencing’ is no different from advertising. They’re either selling things or ideas.
“Do you have a problem with Tom Selleck “
A problem with Tom Selleck?! Bite your tongue! Who could possibly? 💕
Your mean Franco-African
I hear that somebody once scored a goal in soccer.
Tell you who looks good, too, Mexico.
If they play England in the next round, Mexico will win.
“people harassing him for his positive remarks about the US “
I wondered how long it would take before the America haters started to attack the tourists falling in love with America.
We watched ‘Three Men and a Baby’ the other night.
He’s definitely nice to look at...
I’m the ‘80s I had his picture on my wall at work. It’s the popular one in the red Hawaiian shirt.
I went on vacation and a temp filled in for me. She told someone in the office, “Boy, her husband sure is good looking.” 😁
I hope we win and don’t even bother to steal a trash can in celebration.
LOL!
I liked him in Quigley Down Under.
I never saw that one. I assumed it had to do with Australia, and that location never has interested me a bit. But I might give it a try.
These visitors are fun to watch. He should continue to travel the states.
It is about an American sharpshooter called unwittingly to Australia to kill Aborigines. He turns the tables. Great movie.
They haven't won a war since the Franco-Prussian War in 1870-71.
They won the World Cup 4 times (tied with Italy and one less than Brazil). They’ve appeared in the finals 8 times, more than anybody else. They win about once in 20 years, so they’re due for a win in the 2030s.
