Aus dem o.g. Board/Zitat einer lettischen Pressemeldung
Hockey fans raise Latvian flag in Karlstad
KARLSTAD, April 28 (LETA) - Just like last year in Cologne, Latvian hockey fans have decided that Latvia's flag must fly high over Karlstad, Sweden, where the 2002 World Ice Hockey championship is taking place.
Late last night, about 100 fans arrived at their guest house and discovered that their Swedish hosts were unprepared to deal with such a large number of people - the entire check-in process took about two hours.
To pass the time, the Latvian fans decided to raise the nation's red-white-red flag on the mast at the guest house. In order not to offend their hosts, the fans left the Swedish flag flying, too.
The flag still remains up mast today, but the obviously good-natured hosts at the guest house took down the Swedish flag.
