After Leicester won the league, everyone would laugh and mock me when I would wear the shirt to play. Then they would shut up when they #getrekt and nutmegged by me.

Loads of times in Italy... had a long chat with the passport control guy when he saw Leicester was my place of birth.

 

Still selling hooky Vardy/Mahrez shirts in Shanghai's fake markets when I was there last month

Just back from Venice and saw a fake Vardy shirt in good company on a stall near Ponte Scalzi (busy bridge near Santa Lucia Station). :D

 

The shirt was going for 12 euro and I had a dilemma. Should I get it as a souvenir from Venice (and maybe a rare one at that)? Or leave it there on display for the masses?

 

I decided to leave it! So it's still there.

 

Ps...I pulled the shirt down a bit so the 'Leicester' collar could be seen.

I am a Wycombe fan currently living in Las Vegas, Nevada. Just wanted to post on here that I was reading the local paper a week or two ago (The Las Vegas Review Journal), and in an article about some unlikely local high school or college victory (and not even in football - I think it was baseball or American football), the writer prefaced it with something along the lines of "This was not a Leicester City level of miracle..." 

 

For some reason that really struck me. Your club has become both a proverb ("A Leicester City miracle") and a verb ("Doing a Leicester") and these concepts have found their way even into localized American journalism. I found it surreal that a Las Vegas journalist, writing to Las Vegans about Las Vegas sports, could drop a Leicester reference in there with full confidence everyone would know what he was talking about.

There will be a new phrase soon ' Doing a Rudkin'  - selling off your best assets for a paltry price.

To us the Vardy story is quite tired now but I suppose it's still incredible to onlookers
