In Switzerland you traditionally eat Bratwurst with "Bürli" (special kind of bread).

And you drink beer.

Your English is far better than my Swedish, but... I hope you drink beer instead of bear ;)that good old bearwhiz beer... it's in the water! that's why it's yella! actually they drink oil in sweden (öl)

at louis II you can get real beer and a real merguez-frites sandwich, which imho is well worth any bratwurst. what's more, you can actually get to the concessions, eat and get back to your seat during halftime.

as an american living in france (or a frenchman born in america if you prefer, i now have double nationality), i find this one of the most interesting comparisons between my two countries.

here, you show up at the stadium 15 minutes before kickoff, watch the match intently, and leave at the final whistle. you might have a kebab before or after in the street, but that's incidental.

in america, you get to the parking lot 2 hours before game time and 'tailgate" (pig out). then you eat continually during the game, spending nearly as much time standing in line at concessions as in your seat. the food is amazing in choice and in quality (and in price). at SBC park there's even an esplanade where people just sit and eat, with a view of the bay but not the field!!!! something about that just ain't right...
