They're quite living in Russia or maybe even America. The $ that they earned most likely can provide for them for the rest of their life.
As the Russian national soccer team and its fans prepare to head to Wales for a World Cup qualifier next month, the head of the mountains's supporter association (VOB), advised fans to booze up in order to fight the dreaded H1N1 swine flu, according to Reuters.
"We advise our fans to drink a lot of Welsh whisky as a form of disinfection," VOB head Alexander Shprygin told Reuters.
"That should restore to health all symptoms of the disease."
And it should do wonders for the Welsh pubs and the acetaminophen industry. Of course, acetaminophen is for wimps. Everyone knows the to the fullest extent way to combat a whisky hangover is more whisky.
From Reuters:
Russia's Health Ministry has issued a public signal against traveling to Britain because of the spread of the H1N1 virus but Shprygin said he expected at least several hundred fans would go to Wales for the September 9 qualifier in Cardiff.
"Constitution officials say this virus is very dangerous but being a fan myself I can tell you that for a real fan nothing is more important than the well-being of the team," said Shprygin, who also sits on the executive put up of the Russian FA.
"Russian fans don't fear anything or anybody so this virus will not stand in our way of supporting our team."
The Russian FA also said healthfulness issues should not prevent fans from traveling.
"We don't want our team to be without any support for such an important match so we urge our fans to go to Wales regardless of the health warning," a spokesman said.

Soccer plays in diversified countries often like to wear their stockings pulled up over the knees. There is apparently enough spandex in the stockings to keep them in place around the thighs with no call for garters.
