Russia Forbids Chickens at the World Cup

For the people of Nigeria, dyeing chickens as their team's colors is considered good luck. Fans that flew from Nigeria asked if they were allowed to bring chickens into the stadium, but were denied by the administrators in Russia. As Fox News reports "fans from Nigeria asked whether they could bring a chicken to the stadium. It's their symbol and people support the team with them at all the games. We told them they can't bring a live chicken at all". This is not the first time that the people of Nigeria have been barred from bringing in their beloved chickens into the world cup. The same thing happened in 2010 when their chickens weren't "allowed into the stadium in Johannesburg". [1 Image, 1 Link,2 Quotation,121 Words]
