Quetza-who?

The biggest sporting event in the world began this past Thursday and I hear you saying “Huh?  Did they move the Super Bowl to June?”  

Although soccer’s World Cup action doesn’t get much notoriety here in the United States,  world-wide folks are down with it.   For instance, in Mexico the Grand Warlock Antonio Vazquez invoked Ancient God Quetzalcoatl to help guide them to the championship round.  (Dude looks a little like Francis Wood doesn’t he?)

Quetzalcoatl is an Ancient God depicted as a winged serpent worshipped by the Aztecs and Mayans.

Like most of those Ancient Gods, Quetzacoatl was all about fertility and farming.  Here is a good video describing Quetzacoatl and his origins:

Mexico plays a very good German team today.  I’m thinking Quetzacoatl has his work cut out for him to get Mexico past the Germans but we’ll just have to see won’t we?  Match begins at 11 a.m. and I will have it on the tube at Buzzy’s Country Store.  So if anybody is interested in spending some of their Father’s Day watching soccer come on down.  OK, I didn’t really think so.
