The stadium they’ve seen a hundred times looks completely different through a stranger’s eyes.
Rick and Clancy talk World Cup fever in Dallas, from Rick’s first match in 1994 to watching tourists fall for ranch dressing and a screen they stopped noticing years ago.
The conversation moves through ticket prices, FIFA’s reputation, and how different the sport felt before the US started hosting. It lands on something simpler: hosting gave them a reason to look at their own city again.
