IRS Spain World Cup
Definition
A colloquial or confusion-based query often involving the intersection of tax administration (IRS), the Spanish national football team, and the FIFA World Cup.
A humorous hypothetical scenario where one wonders if a national football team's prize money at the World Cup is taxable by a foreign country's revenue service (specifically the US Internal Revenue Service).
Examples
I wonder if the IRS would actually try to audit the Spanish squad if they took the World Cup trophy home to Madrid.
Trying to explain to my accountant that my betting losses on the Spain World Cup campaign are a business expense is a new level of IRS fan-fiction.
If the IRS could tax the joy of a Spain World Cup victory, they would probably have the national debt paid off by halftime.
