Rick Dockery was a quarterback for one of America's most famous football teams when he gave arguably the worst performance in his league's history. Overnight Rick became a laughing stock and unemployable in his own country.

But somehow Rick's agent finds him a job. He is guaranteed a starting position and a salary. The only problem is that the team that wants him is in Parma, Italy. The Italian football league is tiny and, unlike Rick, the Italian players only get paid in free meals.

Rick has never been to Italy, so it's no surprise that the country has a few surprises for him. What follows is a delightful, heartwarming story of an innocent abroad.
