Lithuania or Bust

Lest it ever be said that we don't feature support for countries and ethnicities from all ends of the earth, we found this gem and got a decent shot. And we're not saying don't be proud of your heritage: this commuter is certainly more conservatively vocal than this Polish driver. 

Then again, when it is an oft stated fact that 'Mericans can't tell you where the US is on a globe, it may just be that most viewers of this bumper decor assume this ride is hailing a section of Chicago or New York than a Baltic state. 

In salute of this proud patriot, we give you all that is Lithuanian of which you may (or may not) be familiar with: Easter Granny, the capital Vilnius, and the importance of basketball. Here in the US of A, pro basketball has become about as gripping as amateur shuffleboard. But in Lithuania that sport is a religion.
