Anonymous Architecture

Anonymous architecture. Great pylon somewhere in Vienna.

A stair supported by a sculptural pylon spotted somewhere in Vienna. The building block might show an abstract athlete - possibly a footballer? Finally, a World Cup post on "supernice".

Mexican wave

It would be beautiful if the direction of the mexican wave is influenced by the location on the earth. Like the swirl direction of sink drains? The wave runs counter clockwise in the northern hemisphere. And opposite in the southern.
I thought to notice it yesterday during the game Italy v.s. New Zealand but don't dare to believe it. Maybe just mixed up by the score.
