“That was SOME game! Norse teams are always fun to play against, with all the singing and belching and stuff. Also, you are probably in for the latest lewd joke and the odd pint of beer offered by the Norse coach to toast and quaff "for keeping spirits high".

If only they did not have that bad habit of pounding your team in the turf rather than playing the ball their challenges would be always welcomed.

I began to suspect that something was amiss when I saw my blitzer Penmaat-Ra look into the opponent's dugout with a shocked expression on his skull.

(Seiing a shocked expression on a SKULL is someting that does not happen often.. believe me.)

You all know that Norse people love beer and women. You all know that Norse teams often bring beer and women to "cheer up" the players. That was the case for the "Hell" team and amongst the women there was one with jade-green eyes.

The Mummies and the Blitz-Ra started to mumble about "Ankhefenamun's bride" and "possible reincarnation". I was thinking about some new tactics I wanted to use in the match and did not pay much attention to that.

Knumhotep slowly came to ask me what use had the Norse for the women. I, like an idiot, told him.

My team went berserk. At the end of the first half, there were more Norse players out of commission (either KO or Injuried) than standing and ready to play. At the end of the second half there were only three Norse still able to play, and all three lying prone on the turf.

After endgame, I remember the mummies glancing angrily at Penmaat-Ra, who kept mumbling with himself things like "couldn't take risks" and "not my fault if in Norsca, women of ill repute have jade eyes".

Weird things do happen in a coach's life, I surely know that much.
Still wondering though... who the HECK is this Ankhefenamun?”
