Hi,

Another Swans supporter in Basel here.

My first three years living in Europe (about 4-5 hours north of here in Germany), I travelled to Amsterdam and twice to England to a friend's house to watch the GF live. The last two times involved the Swans of course - one happy, one sad.

Getting up at 6am (5am in England) and getting drunk is fun when your team's in the match, or for the first time away from home. But I haven't been able to summon the courage to do it since then.

Good luck finding somewhere here to open up so early and serve obnoxious Australians beer! I don't know of anywhere in Basel that has it, but I haven't really looked.
