No more International Play
It’s outrageous, but Americans abroad are getting heckled for no reason.
“Laurel Scapicchio and her 13-year-old daughter were waiting for a train in the Paris metro a few weeks ago when their conversation was interrupted. Two men in their 20s overheard their American accents and shouted, “Pigs!”"
What about this poor girl. Spat at for being American!
“While living in Spain recently, Jane Kelly, 20, recalls a friend being spat on for being American.”
But the worst has got to be the damage to the International Play sector. That’s right, horney American males are finding it difficult to score in Europe nowadays (possibly two men in Prague right now.)
“Man, it was bad,” says the Rat Pack-y star of Swingers. “These girls saw us and were kind of flirting, and they kept asking us if we were American. Finally we said, ‘Yes,’ and they just took off.
American girls have yet to report the same problem…

This is such a sad, sad story. To think that not only are Europeans hating Americans for NO good reason and then to TOP that, American men will no longer get the play they so rightly deserve because of it. To quote the words of grandma…its just a cryin shame.
