Woosh, Woosh

When the U.S. team got back on the bus after training for the ride back to the hotel, soaking wet from the rain, humidity and exertion, the bus was as hot as the Amazon jungle. With the USA’s team liaison and translator not yet on the bus, Abby Wambach decided to take matters into her own hands, going up to the bus driver and using her best charade-like moves while making the sound of an air conditioner cranking up. When the bus driver started wiping down the steamed windows, Wambach thought for a moment she’d been miss-interpreted, but then the AC did click on, giving the U.S. team a welcome respite from the heat.
