There Aren’t Any Commie Stars Underneath The Croatian Coat Of Arms

Croatian%20Jersey%20With%20Star.jpg
There’s been another national trademark blunder in soccer. Yet, instead of singing the wrong national anthem, an Austrian souvenir shop in Vienna decided to place the wrong coat of arms on the Croatian’s national team soccer jersey. What’s the big deal? Plainly, it’s like showcasing the Virgen de Guadalupe embracing and caressing the serpent instead of stomping on it’s fucking head.

In a nearby shopping centre where they sell souvenirs, an unpleasant surprise expected the Croatian tourists. In a sea of t-shirts there were also Croatian ones, but the coat of arms they bore was wrong, with olive branches whose shape recall a letter U.

To balance things, at the bottom they placed a small star. This was the most surprising thing, as we all know they fight against Thompson’s concerts, (sic) right due to such iconography.

We’re not extirely sure what the hell the last sentence means, but obviously the reporter wasn’t writing for a Mexican kid who likes to write about soccer in the United States…and always reads Javno. What we translate from the tone is simple: olive branches intermingled with stars equals death. Eternal death! Maybe.
