Sorry to nitpick, but this is incorrect. The US were semifinalists in the first world cup back in 1930. To this day it remains the closest a CONCACAF side has come to the trophy. Granted it was a much different tournament back then with only 13 teams and the knockout stage was just the 4 group winners.
The QF appearances by Mexico x2, the US and Costa Rica are arguably more significant achievements.

And THEY bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh, this is a Nazi bar now. And its too late because they’re entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.
