Apple's Website Has Hidden Easter Egg to Celebrate Euro 2016

I heard almost 9% of Iceland's entire population made the journey for the tournament. Amazing.

Heh, that reminds me of this picture which I stumbled across:

Football?... I think you mean soccer.

No ... no ...

More like Soccer in American English, Football to the rest of the world (excluding Australia).

The sport is commonly called "soccer" here in Canada too, but I used "football" in this article due to the context:

(a) Euro 2016 is being hosted by France, where the sport is called "football";
(b) Euro 2016 only consists of teams from Europe, where the sport is called "football"

If it was a U.S.-centric article, I would have used "soccer."

Plus, I included a link to "association football" on Wikipedia for those who are still mind-boggled. ;)

But it's always fun to debate!

Football?... I think you mean soccer.

Umm, no. The game is called football because feet are what's used to manipulate the ball, unlike American football where the players' feet rarely touch the ball. I think soccer is largely an north americanism. Hence the FA Cup: Football Association Cup.

Yes, England lost to Iceland - I lol'd

Can we throw in some EU referendum jokes, or is that too political? Something about England leaving Europe twice in one week? Of course the joke doesn't quite work as Wales are still in the competition.

I was disappointed to see the Welsh players celebrating England's terrible performance with such gusto. As an England supporter I genuinely feel that Iceland won the game fair and square and we were truly, truly awful. I wish Wales all the best and, despite the fact that Welsh supporters will be expecting England supporters to be cheering on France I for one will be hoping Wales do very well. Fair play to them. :-)

Anyway, that had nothing to do with Apple's Easter Egg so I'll shut up...
