The craziness of the world championship


After 10 days, I had to go along with the rest of the crowd, and dedicate a post to the world soccer championship, that's happening in Germany.
First things first: Portugal is already in the second stage, hurray! :)) Though there are less flags than during the European Cup, people are quite crazy all the same :);) From all the pieces that I've seen so far on TV about Portuguese fans here, as well as in Germany (specially in Germany is quite insane, with the emigrants, as when the Portuguese team practices, there are more people watching than in the Portuguese league's games... which is not that surprising, but never mind ;)), my very favorite was with a small girl that had the chance to met Figo close to the hotel where they're staying, and questioned about her experience, she could only say: "he smells soooo good!" :)))))) She was really sweet :)
To go along with the spirit, a couple of people here in the Institute actually organized a kind of betting system for the cup. So far, I've managed to stay in the top 10 (eheheheh), but competition is really tough... :))
