Might be?!? The Brits were already testing the slovakian ground, when I ran the Bratislava marathon in April.

Go to a basketball tournament and you'll see a very different Finnish fanbase. Finnish basketball fans aren't entering the arena on all fours if the game starts at 4 PM. For Finnish hockey fans that isn't unusual at all. Hockey being the number one sport in our country means it draws a certain kind of crowd. If you want to describe them, "civilized" and "well-behaved" aren't the first words that come to kind.

Supposed to be around 1,000 Brits there! One thing I can guarantee is that wherever the best place for drinking is, the Brits will be there and in great spirits!

Our fans are extremely welcoming and will love mixing with fans of the other nations!

In international hockey, the fans always end up mixing and drinking together.

This happens when English meets German in one single head.

Are you trying to say that a beer costs 2 euros at the fan zone? How large are they?

Possibly, first time I saw it, might take a while till it appears there.

I know the feeling. I have the privilege of using both English and German at work, but for me it's usually German that gets butchered with English words.

Are you allowed to drink a beer in the stands in steel arena?

Are you allowed to drink a beer in the stands in steel arena?

I think so, in a plastic cup only. At least that's the norm in Slovakia usually.
