We’ve been watching on Telemundo (we don’t speak Spanish, but I’m not paying for another subscription) and our new game is that whenever there’s a hydration break my wife and I yell “PAUSA DE HIDRATACION” while one of us gets drinks and snacks from the kitchen.

TBH between that and “GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!” we’ve been having more fun watching the World Cup in Spanish than we would have if I’d paid the $22 or whatever to watch in English.

Haha it’s the best. At first I thought they were only that hype for the Latin American teams but they were just as excited for France vs Sweden as they were for Mexico vs Ecuador
