Gizmodo reported earlier in the week that a 67 year-old Belgian woman drove 900 miles, instead of 90, due to a GPS error in her car. Her ultimate goal was to pick up a friend at the train station in Brussels only 93 miles away from her home. Instead, she ended up in Zagreb.
“I was distracted, so I kept driving. I saw all kinds of traffic signs, first in French, then German and finally in Croatian, but I kept driving because I was distracted. Suddenly I appeared in Zagreb and I realized I wasn’t in Belgium anymore,” the woman said.
As quirky as this sounds, one little detail is missing from the story. Or does our cross-continent heroine always travel with a passport in the car? Yes, she is a EU citizen, but you still have to show passports crossing international borders, even in Europe.
CroatianSports Nation: Do you believe this really happened?
this story sounds like bullshit
tennis is an awesome sport along with bocce!
i’ve played in a bocce tounament down here in melbourne a few years ago, i did ok but the bocce scene is still alive and well in melbourne.
lol
@nije bitno, the problem is that i play with women that have huge balls, thats just my style!
Kreso – stop playing with your balls and get a women
😉
I play bocce almost everyday against my dad or against whoever comes over. I have a bocce ball court in my backyard.
Elivis – yes great game to have a few drinks with.
@ bocce talk
bocce is one sport Istrians and Dalmo’s have on lock 😉
@ Nije
The old guys and a jug of vino are the best.
@nije bitno- my ball handling skills are brilliant!
@ Elvis – I never lost at that game
Can we get some Bocce Coverage?

Do people really care about tennis? Any Bocce ball fans?
Vekic goes down 6-1, 6-4 but shows top 10 potential.
HUGE forehand and great returns
give me a good line and 3 michael crabtrees and watch.
Cilic taking the court soon for his second round match against Rajeev Ram.
Good news about his 3rd round opponent. It took #21 Seppi 5 sets and 4 hours, 7 minutes to beat his opponent
Also, Vekic-Wozniacki about to start

Hope Pleti goes to Club Brugge. Belgian league has similar quality to Russian but Brugge with a far better chance of playing in Europe
…also, Radosevic could be on his way to Parma
Hajduk’s new saviour – 18 year old striker from the Ivory Coast named Jean Kouassi – haha, you heard it here first. Torcida already chanting “Drogba, Drogba”!
Cutler and the Bears suck!!! Start 7-1 and can’t even make the playoffs.
Sincerely,
A Green Bay Packers fan
Give him a good offensive line and sit back.
cutler is sooooo overrated!
pepe Guardiola Mandzos new coach good luck i hope he Mandzo is safe with this overrated coach coming
Hey hey now. Wasn’t me Mishko…

@Ante B.
You’re welcome.
@Poglavnik
Good move.

That’s Ziva’s Mom.
I call bullshit too. I said the same thing to Ante when he sent me the link. There is no way that she just “ends up in Zagreb.” Croatia is not in the EU. Interesting story though, makes you wonder.
Eagles get Kelly!!!
Great fit offensively with our weapons.
Hopefully we can finally get our D figured out.
Hasn’t been the same since Dawk left and J.J. passed away.
E-A-G-L-E-S, EAGLES!!!
Trestman should be good. Other coaches have done well in both the CFL & NFL.
Ustani, thanks for the info! I hope his career turns out well for my Bears.
Jarac, I wouldn’t say he’s a cancer. I would say he’s very high risk and high reward. Once he has a dominant OLine in front of him, he can tear shit up. The only problem is that he needs more targets because Marshall isn’t enough. Devin Hester is a shitty WR.
Lovren speaks out about Zlatan issue:

Mario Mandzukic might be getting a new coach

@Ante B.
Trestman has an excellent football mind and his X’s and O’s are stellar to the point of scientific. At the same time the players love him and he is respected but his most valuable aspect is that he is a leader of men. A great leader! The guy covers the gamut as far as what to look for in a coach.
However, your QB is the king of bringing anyone or any situation down. Talented but he has issues to put it mildly.
Cutler is a cancer!
Trestman is the new coach of the Chicago Bears. Anybody know anything about this guy? I remember him being around the Bay Area and then going to Canada. I hope this is what will light the fire underneath the Bears’ ass. I still think all they have is Forte, Cutler and Marshall. You take one out and they all crumble.
she is probably still high from tomorrowland.
I call bullshit
Maybe you could be half asleep going through one border checkpoint, but to go through 4!? And 90 miles is a big difference from 900.
Also, here’s her post-match interview from Monday:

Good news for those who want to see Vekic!
She will play on Hisense (the 2nd biggest court), so should get some ESPN time and will definetly be available on WatchESPN and other streams
