00:00Do you think that the city, like in general, the region is well prepared for the World Cup?
00:08Or do you think that there is some kind of a cluster F coming?
00:11Cluster F is coming.
00:12You think so?
00:13Think about the last time you went to a Patriots game and how long it took you to get home.
00:19Foxborough, I'm sorry, is not built to hold what is about to come.
00:24And there are going to be so many more people outside the stadium, like a Taylor Swift concert, than for
00:29a Patriots game.
00:30Because people are flying in from all over the world and they're going to try and get close because maybe
00:34get a ticket.
00:34Otherwise, they're watching at a bar there.
00:36It's going to be historically awful traffic.
00:41And what about Boston?
00:42Do you think Boston is ready to host, like, everybody out on City Hall Plaza and all of that?
00:46Or do you think that?
00:47I guarantee you road work begins at the start of this.
00:49Like, we are the dumbest people on the planet.
00:51Will the snow be melted by then?
00:52No.
00:53I don't know about that.
00:54Do you think a lot of people will go to City Hall Plaza for it?
00:57Yes.
00:57You do?
00:57Oh, yeah.
00:58For FIFA?
00:59Yeah.
00:59Oh, man.
01:00Oh, there'd be a ton of people there.
01:01Yeah, FIFA is, like, next level.
01:03No, I know.
01:03I would just would rather go to a bar.
01:05It's next level around the world.
01:07Yeah, but even here, though, like, you think...
01:09I know it's around the world.
01:11Actually, I'm surprised because your boys are very into it.
01:14But it's...
01:14I think that's because of the video game?
01:17I think it could be.
01:18It helps.
01:19Yeah, I think it helps.
01:20But I think that when you start to look at FIFA, there's just so many different types
01:26of people in America from all over the world that it just takes it to a whole nother level.
01:32It's not very difficult to figure it out, right?
01:34Because one day I did it and I was like, I couldn't believe how many people watched FIFA
01:40versus the Super Bowl.
01:42And I know it's around, but you're talking 5 billion people watching it.
01:47And that was including, you know, America, which there was an S-ton of people watching it.
01:52So City Hall will be jam-packed.
01:55I also...
01:56Providence is also going to be jammed.
01:58Yeah, all over.
01:59Like, you get Foxborough in the middle of the two places it's going to be...
02:01I got a text from a famous resident of the area who said that there are 5,000 spaces to
02:07park.
02:08Security is taking up the other 20,000 with tents and fencing.
02:13The town is freaking out.
02:15It's going to be a nightmare.
02:17Hmm.
02:17Wow.
02:18So we should send Jackson to the town meeting tonight for the station.
02:22The Selectman meeting.
02:23That'd be funny.
02:25Yes, we should.
02:27So they are only going to have 5,000 parking spaces?
02:31According to Blot Zobak.
02:33That's what the...
02:35What about...
02:37What about the bike lanes?
02:39Will they be open out there?
02:40Honestly, that actually might be the best.
02:42I'm going to jump on the bike lane train.
02:44We're going to bike from Boston.
02:45Or the actual train.
02:46Like, Curtis, you've said you've done that before, right?
02:48Once for the AFC Championship years ago.
02:52And it was miserable?
02:53It was great down.
02:54Well, he's also kicked off for upskirting.
02:56God.
02:58Jeez.
02:59Curtis, why are you laying down in the bike lanes, man?
03:03Why are you going to bike?
03:04No, no, no.
03:05On the subway, Wiggy.
03:07On the subway.
03:07Well, he moved it to the bike lanes.
03:09Okay.
03:11For some addresses.
03:12Yeah, I mean, it's...
03:14I don't know what it sounds like.
03:15I hope they...
03:15Hopefully they have everything together.
03:17It's a giant undertaking.
03:19Those bars and restaurants at Patriot Place?
03:21Like, that is going to be...
03:23The jungle.
03:24Yeah.
03:24I don't even think Boston is just...
03:26No city can...
03:26I think it's very difficult for cities to host these type of events because just the...
03:31Well, how did you feel San Francisco did?
03:34Remember, I left on Friday.
03:37So, I didn't really get to experience.
03:40But I feel like trying to move around earlier during the week, there was a ton of traffic everywhere.
03:46And it didn't seem like...
03:47I felt like San Francisco, the area of where we were, there wasn't, like, a lot going on.
03:54But it could have been that we were there earlier in the week.
03:57You know what I mean?
03:58Because when we...
04:00When they did it in Atlanta, I feel like it was everywhere.
04:04Like, you knew the Super Bowl was there.
04:06Yeah.
04:06Miami, too.
04:07Yeah.
04:07I feel...
04:08It's...
04:08When you were in San Francisco, you didn't really feel like the Super Bowl was there.
04:13There wasn't, like, signage all over the place.
04:16And I feel like in other cities, there are in Super Bowls, signage everywhere.
04:21And I don't know.
04:22Maybe just because the game was in Santa Clara, so it might have been a little bit different.
04:26This is Kevin from Wellesley.
04:28What's up, Kevin?
04:30Hey, I just thought it was funny.
04:31I was talking to my girlfriend last night.
04:33She works at a restaurant in Foxborough, and they're already taking reservations for the FIFA tournament.
04:38They are?
04:40Yeah.
04:40Yeah.
04:41I don't think they have...
04:42Well, they don't have enough.
04:43Like, for all those people, there's not going to be enough places for them to go.
04:48Yeah, you're going to have to stay in Boston or, like, what he said in Rhode Island.
04:51You're right about that.
04:51And Europeans, famously awful tippers, so please warn her.
04:55Oh.
04:55Yeah, because they don't have a tipping culture, so...
04:57Nope.
04:59If I were then, at that time, I would sign up for automatic tips.
05:03I would do those for the World Cup.
05:05Because too many people don't live like we do in terms of paying for service, and the people that are
05:10serving should not be punished for that.
05:12How do you feel about the 15% on parties over six or more?
05:16I think that's fine.
05:17Yeah.
05:18I feel like...
05:19I think 50% is slow.
05:20Right.
05:21I know.
05:21I feel like they shortchange themselves sometimes.
05:23They do.
05:23Like, it should be 20%.
05:25Now, you can still leave it.
05:27Right.
05:27Unless you're offended by the fact that they said automatic tip to start.
05:31And I think a lot of people just look at, oh, tips included, don't worry about it, instead of what
05:34the actual percentage is.
05:36Yeah, they definitely do that.
05:37If the tip's included, they don't worry about it.
05:40But I would think, wouldn't every restaurant just put it at 20%?
05:4320, yeah.
05:44I mean, I feel like that's the standard, normal thing.
05:47All right.
05:47Well, FIFA is coming.
05:50We'll see if we are ready.
05:51We'll see if we are ready.
