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's on Instagram. Seems like he's going to be low-key from now on.
Fair opinion. Please also inform the running-into-people-lozenge-ball guys also about the ills of “sudden death” finales.
I wish them well, I’ll probably be dead by then.
I’ve collected a few pages of links to some of the visitors’ comments.
I don’t understand why I haven’t seen any from other countries besides UK, Australia, and Japan mostly. There are 48 countries playing, but they’re silent when it comes to comments. (I guess the threat of death might pertain to some of the athletes if they were to say something positive about America.)
I so enjoyed his posts on X. Best wishes to him in the future.
I did post “mostly”.
I saw a little of Norwegians, French, and Italians. The Afrikaner who I saw actually has been living in the US for a few years, is succeeding in the American Dream, loving America beyond belief, and has some wonderful videos. His name is Jason Bartlett.
Freddy...
It’s only a game...
Seriously...
Other than it being the biggest event on the planet?
Even if the USA loses, there’s millions of American’s that follow various soccer leagues, especially the English Premier League and MLS. They will still watch as many games as they can.
It could be worse, he could be a Kansas City Royals fan, currently in last place with a record of 35-51.
That’s the fun part about single elimination. It’s not about being better, it’s about being better for 1 game.
Maybe they know how to enjoy themselves without putting it on social media.
England losing to DR Congo at halftime.
They’re Going Home!
Africa rising!
I root for the African Africans.
Oh well, Mexico will destroy England.
England now up 2-1.
So they’ll get humiliated by El Tri in the next game.
