WASHINGTON—Dazed while trying to piece together the series of bizarre yet deeply vivid images, the entire nation reportedly awoke Monday from a strange dream in which it had been watching soccer. “I wasn’t just willingly viewing it, I actually cared who won, and I was tuning in right here in the United States instead of watching it in Europe or someplace like that,” said 27-year-old Philadelphia resident Erika Sloan, one of the 340 million bewildered Americans who were kneading their foreheads in an attempt to recall the almost lifelike scenes in which they knew when Cape Verde was playing and had an opinion on whether a player was offside. “I was in the bar where I usually watch football, but instead it was soccer on every screen. But no one was scared or even complained. And I can still remember hearing this word over and over: “Mbappé.” Who is that? What is that? I know I used to know, and it made me happy, but it’s all turning into a blur now.” At press time, sources confirmed the powerful images had fully dissipated, and the nation realized that even intense dreams were ultimately pretty pointless.The post Nation Wakes Up From Strange Dream Where They Were Watching Soccer appeared first on The Onion.
