World Cup excitment...

Ghoulish Delight · 06-07-2006, 09:03 AM

I played soccer for 9 years...but could never watch it. In recent years, I've learned to watch a little, but I still don't sit through whole matches. But I'll probably try to watch at least some of the elimination rounds.

Ironically, the year the world cup was here, I was in Europe visiting France and England. That was great, especially as we watched the final match between Brazil and Italy from our hotel's Itallian restaurant, run by Brazilians. Rather amusing when the dude who was painted yellow and green, wearing nothing but a Brazillian flag and blowing a whistle was pouring our coffee the next morning.
