When one of the other guests discovered that my sister and her husband were not rooting for the Americans, but rather were quietly pulling for the underdog Ghana, he became belligerent, calling them a number of names that are unprintable in a family newspaper but also asserting that they were “a couple of filthy communists,” “total commies,” “godless commies,” etc., etc., pursuing them through the party
IT’S FRIGGIN’ SOCCER. WGAS?
The guest way out of line was the one that wouldn’t shut up...One does not make everyone uncomfortable when being a guest at someone else’s home....I’d have a few things to say to such a bore, then I would leave...The hostess should have shut the guy up....and if he couldn’t, she should have told him to leave....one name to drop off for any future partys.
