Surprisingly, the incident took place north of the Mason-Dixon line.
According to The Republican, a woman in Amherst, Mass., called police on Sunday after a neighbor called her to complain that her World Cup celebration was ruining his NASCAR viewing experience.
The unnamed woman said the neighbor scolded her because her cheering along with the noise from her television were disrupting his ability to watch NASCAR and listen to Lynyrd Skynyrd at the same time. The man also called her “a bad name” and yelled at her for “taking jobs away from Americans.”
The woman called police just to document the situation and told them not to send anybody to the house because she still felt safe, as the man did not make any direct threats. The number of the caller was blocked, so she wasn’t able to pinpoint exactly which neighbor had taken issue with her television habits.
The woman, who is originally from South America, said she has been wearing numerous jerseys from her native continent during the World Cup competition taking place in Brazil, which is probably one of the many countries her NASCAR-loving neighbor wouldn’t be able to identify on a map.
Hey, we’re actually in Brazil covering the World Cup: Mandatory is headed to the World Cup!
