Wearing a Japan jersey with the FIFA crest on his chest, this fan traveled all the way to Texas to support his national team — and ended up starring in one of the most memorable moments of the trip: his first encounter with a Texas barbecue rib. 🍖

What they put in front of him was no ordinary dish. Texas BBQ ribs are famous for being almost brutally large: smoked for hours, glazed with sauce, and so big they’re hard to hold with two hands. For someone used to the portion sizes of Japanese cuisine, seeing that in front of his face must have felt like coming across another world.
The reaction was immediate: he bit right in without hesitation, eyes wide open and with a smile that said it all. Texas BBQ won over a new fan, far from home but very close to something delicious.
