As Alejandro Zendejas looks for his first action at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, he found an unusual way to make a happy headline.
Zendejas and his teammates, Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie, per an ESPN report, left the team hotel in Laguna Niguel, California, on Sunday, June 21, to find a pizza place. That happened several miles from their hotel, but when they tried to catch a rideshare back, they learned there was a big traffic accident that had closed down one side of the Pacific Coast Highway.

Told it would take several hours to clear everything, they considered walking, but Pulisic is nursing an injury and that didn't seem feasible.
According to ESPN, they then spotted SC Carts, a dealership that specializes in high-end, street-legal golf carts. They wandered in and started looking over the golf carts, considering a $9,000 purchase that could take them several miles, and what they would do with the cart then.
