You may recall how the US Ambassador to the UK made a breakfast bet with the Belgian Ambassador to the UK prior to the US-Belgium World Cup match.

Sadly, we all know how that turned out.
Not being one to ignore a bet, Ambassador Matthew Barzun took to the kitchens and fulfilled his wager by whipping together some pancakes.

Belgian Ambassador Guy Trouveroy thanked Barzun for the breakfast by gifting him with a Belgian soccer scarf thus proving that even dignified ambassadors can troll with the best of us.
