Naked football fans

What are you to do in a football-mad country if you think the World Cup takes focus away from society’s problems? For three men in Brazil the answer was to stage a protest by walking through the streets naked while their country’s team played Ghana. The only thing wrong with their plan was that the entire country was glued to their televisions and had no time to even glance at some dudes walking down the street with no clothes on.
Not even the police could be bothered.
A local police spokesperson said: “Someone called us to check this out but it was not a violent crime and we were watching the match so we decided not to do anything about it.“They only wanted to get attention, but they couldn’t even get this as everyone was watching the match.”
Another valuable lesson for all us. Don’t walk around naked during World Cup matches in Brazil. And if you do, always wear sunscreen.
