Post your strange facts here

I looked up your story, and it is different, but don't hosts not technically qualify (France '98)?

I guess it depends on the eyes looking at it. Hosts are pre-qualified, which is the reason I didn't count them. That being said, I did write without qualifying, which I guess was my mistake. I should have written something like "without having qualified for it".
