We've Been Lied to about America....[World Cup] Foreigners 1st Time to USA

England World Cup fan issues apology to America over stadium judgment: ‘They are simply better than ours’​


An England soccer fan at the World Cup has gone viral after admitting that Britons underestimated the scale of America's sports venues.

In a video shared from the stands of the Dallas Stadium at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Oliver Henry said that Brits “owe America an apology” for doubting the size of their sports venues.

“We owe apologies to America because their football stadiums are so much better than ours,” he said in a video taken at the England and Croatia match last Friday. “This is the Dallas Stadium and it’s absolutely incredible. England just beat Croatia, but look at the size of the stadium.”

The AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, is the home of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys. It has a retractable roof and can hold about 80,000 people.

Henry wrote in the caption of his post: “We owe America a huge apology about their stadiums, they are simply better than ours [sic]. This was the AT&T stadium in Dallas and it is the best venue I’ve been to. I went to watch Croatia vs England in the fifa World Cup, England beat Croatia 4-2 and the stadium was one of the highlights of the day.”

The tourist continued to be impressed by his trip to Texas, according to an Instagram post he shared days after the match, which started again with “we owe America a huge apology.”

“The people of Texas have been the friendliest and most accommodating people I have ever met,” Henry wrote.

“I came to watch England in the World Cup to play Croatia and that game was at the AT&T stadium in Dallas. We have had the best time for the entire trip. Part of my heart will forever stay in Texas.”

The World Cup has brought numerous heartwarming moments as foreign fans experience the U.S. for the first time.
 
All of the US venues are outstanding in their own unique way. Other than Gillette, I've been to the others. AT&T and Mercedes-Benz are my favorites. Though I have to admit, the stadium in Monterrey is simply stunning.
 
Okay ... thanks for sharing your conversations with DeepSeek .. though what does that have to do with what I explained ?

Nothing at all ....

So one of the reasons I’m on this forum was due to an extremely religious Pakistani I used to work with. He told me what his main reason was as to why he moved to the US with his family..which BTW was not listed by DeepSeek.

Now his reason is not something specific to Pakistan it’s just something probably every country has had to deal with at one point or another. So I’m not knocking it specifically.

He said how his fellow man treated his fellow man was intolerable. Surrounded by people who claim they are living a virtuous life but in reality aren’t. He said he couldn’t even get a phone installed without paying somebody extra to make sure his paperwork didn’t get “lost”.

He then said he’d rather be dropped in a society which was wall-to-wall full of non-believers at every turn of his head who didn’t ask for anything “extra”…than a society of wall-to-wall full of believers who constantly did.

I always found his logic an interesting case study. Surrounded by fellow religious people which pained him to see were obviously destined for hell vs a sea of non-believers who were oblivious to their same fate but it didn’t pain him at all since they simply didn’t know any better.
