World Cup fever has reached the Norwegian parliament, where the MPs have made.... Rowing like the Vikings.
Before, during and after her victory Norway 4-1 over Iraq in Boston, country fans, many of whom wore Viking helmets were photographed rowing in bars, public transportation, and escalators around the stadium.
In this climate, the House of Norway meeting Thursday was interrupted for a while when the president suggested oaring, an idea enthusiastically accepted by all MPs who imitated the Vikings.
