WORLD CUP USA ’94 / THE FIRST ROUND : SPOTLIGHT : MARRIED . . . WITH SOCCER

Were those naked Germans in the water fountain? Almost.

After a recent game in Chicago, an American fan reported seeing many male German soccer fans, stripped to their underwear, splashing about in the Buckingham Fountain.

Another group of Germans took pictures.

The Chicago Tribune broke the story in its Sunday editions.

Apparently, the fountain is a big hit in Germany because it is used in the opening credits of the popular television show “Married . . . with Children.”

The show is popular in Germany.

Chicago cops soon dispersed the Germans who, rumor has it, might have tipped a few beer steins before their wading game.
