World Cup Shock
31 May 2002
Men, women and small decaying turnips around the country were tonight shocked to learn that the World Cup began this morning. "I had no idea," said one shopper in Bristol. "I'm surprised there wasn't any mention of it on TV or in the papers."
Others were equally surprised. "The World What?" asked one woman. "I thought that was next year! Someone really should have said."
Professor Gregory T Mullet of Cambridge University by law has to be mentioned on DeadBrain at least once per year and by sheer coincidence happens to be some sort of media analyst.
"It's only to be expected," he told us with an evil grin on his pet gerbil's face. "Everybody's so caught up in the Jubilee celebrations I don't think they'll want to bother with some silly football competition. Most people in this country aren't interested in football anyway."
Have you seen this?
