hello fellow ethnographers I am Doctor of anthropology from the universe institue and am currently studying the planet earth and the behaviour of the Dnalgne tribe and their participation in the four year ritual known as The World CUp. I have a vast topography to cover so if anyone would like to help out by reporting on the behaviour of these primal people during theis ritual period please report your findings here.

Many thanks, Professor Dlrowehtegnahc

Dear Professor Dlrowehtegnahc,

As you may be aware of by now, the members of the tribe are busy in front of their flatscreen TV's, enjoying cold beverages and snacks while witnessing the ritual of 22 men pursuing a white ball that this time, unfortunately, bounces like a balloon.

As soon as the ritual ends (one month aprox. plus the days to celebrate or moan -depending of the case) we will be delighted to contribute to your findings.

Sincerely,
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Tribe

I belong to a very, very small variation of the Dnalgne tribe originated in the deep jungle of Tijuana, yet relocated near the Ural Mountains for political reasons.

Only when it is possible to be present at the ritual sacrificial altars, but that depends on how far the altar is and how many tickets are sold -also depending on the size of the altar.

Some are known to have space for 45,000 and some others, specially in undeveloped tribes, not beyond 12,000 -fortunately, anthropologist associations such as Sky, Espn and TV+ broadcast the rituals and, thus, it is not always necessary to attend the altar.

Of course, some tribes do the face painting even if not present at the altars. However, among us, those are called "fundamentalists" and one must be careful with them for their rituals may unchain some tensions among tribal groups.
