Attention Irish soccer fans

Dear Irish fans,

In order to make your trip to Iran more enjoyable we suggest that you follow the following guidlines:

1) Be extremely friendly to the ladies, two kisses on each side is recommended.

2) Wear T-shirt with sadam's picture on it, they would love you for that.

3) If you need a beer go to a mosque and ask the bartender, it is usually the guy with towel rapped around his head.

4) Drive your self after you get drunk, Cheers.

5) You don't need a visa to go to Iran. Just show up at the airport with an Israeli passport and a recommendation letter from CIA!

6) You will have the distinct pleasure of visiting Iran during the month of Ramadan. Ramadan is basically like a combination of Oktoberfest, Mardi Gras and St Patrick's day.

7) Great way to meet people, specially the people in charge of greeting foreigners (who we call Basij) is to offer them tokens of food during lunchtime, preferably ham sandwich with bacon on top.

8) For picking up ladies go to Namaz Jomeh (basically the same atmosphere as a wet T-shirt contest).

9) If you have some extra time, you should visit the city of Qazvin, known for their hospitality.

10) Qazvinis love to joke around, a good way to get them going is to moon them, that will be a sure way to break the ice.
