Fans lose trousers to gain entry OMG

Football's governing body has explained why up to 1,000 Dutch fans watched a World Cup tie wearing no trousers.

Around 1,000 fans arrived for the Ivory Coast tie in their traditional bright orange trousers - but bearing the logo and name of a Dutch brewery.

To protect the rights of the official beer they were denied entry, so the male fans promptly removed the trousers and watched the game in underpants.

:rofl:

This is, however, an albeit humorous example of the power corporations insist upon holding over us.

It's time to declare them nonpersons. Eliminate their "right" to sue. Eliminate their "content control". Eliminate their "right" to free speech. Corporations are persons under the law, yet corporations seem to be able to enforce change in the behavior of other persons.

"Your honor, I submit the plaintiff corporation is not a person and therefore has no standing to sue in any court for any purpose. We at this time move for a dismissal."

Music to my ears.
