Eewww! Gross!

Someone was asking me yesterday (maybe it was Laura?) about why soccer teams exchange jerseys at the end of a game. George Vecsey has a nice exploration of the subject in today’s edition of The New York Times (registration required). He even touches on the fact that most American fans, not familiar with the ritual, are pretty grossed out by it. That’s something else that came up in conversation yesterday.
