The guy jumping onto the Christmas tree is awesome. The one bar seen where people are going nuts in the dark bar with Christmas lights actually took place in CA(!). Who knew there were so many Skins fans out there?

Who knew there were so many Skins fans out there? Dude, there is a bar I go to in San Diego to watch the games. It is PACKED. It is Redskins only on Sundays; they have raffles with Skins prizes and everything. HTTR blares from the loud speakers after every TD. Best place I've ever been to watch a game. Wall to wall every Sunday; I can only imagine how crazy it was last weekend (I was east for the holidays). I'll be there tomorrow for sure. Skins fans rule.

What's the deal, whenever someone posts a video, I just get an advert? I don't even see a link to click.

I know there are Skins fans everywhere, but it amazes me how many there are. I've watched a couple of Skins games while traveling and have ended meeting Skins fans out of the woodwork. It's just so much fun. I recall several years back I was traveling through Luzern, Switzerland. Saw a couple of guys wearing Skins gear and said HTTR, thinking they were just American guys on vacation. Turns out they were Swiss/German Skins fans! Lived in the States, became fans and were proud to show the flag. Blew my mind. Last weekend a friend of mine watched the game in Costa Rica. Wouldn't you know it, walked into a bar on a recommendation and ran into dozens of Skins faithful. Just weird and terrific.

So I was in Antarctica during the game last week. I came across this bar there and inside there was a penguin doing the RGIII robot like in the video. I couldn't believe it, I was all like, dude, that's awesome. OK...that didn't happen, but the point is it could have. HTTR!

That's awesome, 'squid. A girl I know out here traveled to New Mexico for Christmas. She went to a bar for the game and there were tons of Skins fan there. The weirdest part of her trip was that she was staying with her boyfriend's family who lives on a reservation. She said there were tons of natives wearing Skins gear, which to me is pretty mind blowing. She spoke with a few about it and they said they feel no affinity towards the Cardinals or Cowboys (the popular teams in New Mexico), but they enjoyed seeing a team with a tribute towards their heritage.
