Déjà vu

Cars with their emegency lights on. Flags everywhere. Men in dishdashs waiving flags on top of cars speeding through the city. Constant honking. Cheerful crowds on the streets. Very forgiving policemen in the presence of clear traffic violiations. Where was it that I had seen that before? Right, the World Cup last year in Berlin.
Well: U.A.E. just won the Gulf Cup. For the first time ever. Football unites.
