Came to be during the summer of 1994, when Mark Robinson joined Blast Off Country Style on tour, coinciding with the U.S. hosting the World Cup for the first time. Said Robinson During the day, wed do the things that indie bands at the time would do go to thrift shops. One day, I bought football cleats and bright blinding orange polyester coachs shorts. The band started calling me coach. At a show in North Carolina, I was sporting my new outfit, complete with a matching bright orange Teenbeat shirt. Esther Oliver came up to me and said, Youve got World Cup fever. That stuck and was the inspiration for the song.
