Trump's Ashes

Your erstwhile "President" made an appearance at the ashes...
What do Donald Trump, the Cookie Monster and England’s 1966 World Cup-winning football team have in common?
They were all at Edgbaston for day three of the first Ashes Test.
So too were superheroes, construction workers, carrots and bananas.
Maybe not literally — though we’re sure at least some fans packed a bit of fruit in their hamper to take to the ground — but people impersonating those things sure were.
Punters were encouraged to rock up to the Saturday of the Edgbaston Test in fancy dress and everyone who joined the party was sat in the Hollies Stand — the part of the ground renowned for being the loudest and loosest piece of real estate in the joint.
Could you hear chants and songs echoing through your TV or radio? They were coming from the Hollies Stand. Did you see someone wearing their jocks outside their pants rather than underneath? Yep, they were in the Hollies stand too.
