Tonight, I have tickets to see a friendly between the Argentina and Canada U-20 teams. I have never been to a professional soccer match in my life. From what I hear, Argentina has one of the best U-20 teams and has won the U-20 World Cup five times.

Does anyone have some advice or etiquette lessons for me? What kind of batteries do you prefer to throw? Double As or the heavy duty types? Also, how do you prevent your bag of urine from accidentally leaking or spilling? Is it difficult to throw a bag of urine with accuracy?

I have so many questions.

How do people conceal all these acoutrements effectively? Is it as simple as duct-taping it to your back a la Die Hard?

Conceal? I don't think that's a requirement.

Which team will you be supporting?

If Canada, then to be an effective soccer fan, you need to learn chants about the Falklands.

And remember, this isn't NFL or basketball or rounders... you will not have a prompter telling you when and what to chant. You're on your own, Darvin.

Have a good one.

Hey there, White Knight of the Ku Klux Klan. Do you have any suggestions for me or know of any good Anti-Argentina songs?

Ku Klux Klan ???? You'll have to explain that one to me.

Enjoy the game mate. Its U20 and while it will possibly be great to see some of the young talent coming through I doubt this will be a game you remember for the atmosphere. Like I said just enjoy the game mate.

Here's a complicated one to start you off... when (if) Canada have a bit of prolonged possession, shout "OLE" every time the Canucks complete a pass.

If you hear..."El que no salta es un inglés" (the one not jumping is an Englishman), make sure you start jumping.

Ok. Can you teach me one that's not totally idiotic?
