US: England Fans Turn Texas Rodeo Into Roaring World Cup Party Ahead Of Croatia Clash.

Fort Worth, United States - June 16, 2026 A video filmed by X user かもめTV captures England football supporters breaking into loud group sing-alongs during the Stockyards Championship Rodeo at Cowtown Coliseum in Fort Worth. Inside the arena, a high industrial ceiling with exposed lighting trusses towers above haze drifting through beams of light. The large dirt floor is marked with rodeo patterns, while giant video screens show England’s St George’s Cross alongside cowboy imagery, Pendleton Whisky branding, and Cowtown Coliseum signage. American and Texas flags hang prominently near the upper levels. In the foreground and mid-ground, groups of men stand among mixed local crowds, many dressed in white England national team shirts with red accents. Some jerseys display names such as “GASCOIGNE” and “KANE” on the back. Fans raise their arms, point toward the arena and screens, record vertically on smartphones, and sing together with mouths wide open. Several supporters are lifted onto shoulders, while others wave or hold England scarves. Cowboy hats, Western clothing, and rodeo spectators fill the surrounding seats and railings, but the England supporters stand out for their coordinated enthusiasm and volume. The footage shows several angles of the same energetic scene, with fans in the stands and around the arena perimeter singing loudly, holding phones aloft, and moving together in unison, creating a focal point within the traditional rodeo setting. England supporters have gathered in the Dallas-Fort Worth area ahead of the Three Lions’ opening match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup against Croatia at AT&T Stadium in nearby Arlington. Many have embraced Texas culture by visiting the historic Fort Worth Stockyards, watching longhorn cattle drives, and attending the nightly rodeo at Cowtown Coliseum. During the event, supporters launched spontaneous football celebrations and led mass sing-alongs, including “Sweet Caroline,” drawing in parts of the wider crowd and creating a festive atmosphere that blended football passion with Western traditions. The videos quickly spread online, showcasing the enthusiasm of the traveling England support and the welcoming yet amused reaction from local Texans. The scenes highlight how World Cup fans are combining football culture with authentic Texas experiences in one of the tournament’s key host regions.
