Those are HILARIOUS!!! They have all four countries spot on.
I was especially fond of the sports portrayal. That is so true of us. We obsess about hockey from the start of the season, to the end of the season, and in-between. We obsess about the American teams playing for the cup named after a British Lord (Stanley).
Gil-galad, if no one else here, will well remember all the car flags sporting the Flaming C that were driving around our fair province last May and June.
Hmm... I wonder who would win a hockey game, Gondor or Arnor. Somehow I can picture a crowd of screaming, red jersey-clad Arnorians rowdily cheering on the Fornost Flames in a Game 7 game against the Pelargir Lightning....
*Sigh. Remembers the playoffs.... Even though that's the only hockey he's ever really paid any attention to.*
