I'm sorry, but I really don't think Americans have a leg to stand on when it comes to comparing ignorance about the outside world with pretty much anyone else....>>> Witty remark or snarky quote of another poster goes here <<<...

I've seen plenty of video footage of Americans chanting USA at times and places that weren't sporting events. I found it inappropriate, bizarre, and felt embarrassed for them.
