  • wow, that’s really odd! I can only think it has something to do with soccer b/c it’s typically only little kids who have lined paper here and what little kid is thinking about USA? Except I think our soccer pretty seriously sucks compared to Germany’s, right? Weird.

(there’s another word with “A” before “Ausbildung”, but too stained, can’t decipher it, maybe it’s possible in full resolution?)… as “training” is one of the possible translations of “Ausbildung”, a possibility is that someone took some notes regarding training in the USA and ultimately got bored or whatever…
