Have you got World Cup Fever?
Hiiii everyone (oi todo mondo!),
I'm new in town and am wondering where it is good place to watch the World Cup? I would especially like to find out where my fellow Brazilians hang out but anywhere where they show the matches and are friendly to carioca girl like me will do.
Thnx!

I don't know about Brazilians specifically, but I have heard that some of the bars in North Beach will definitely be tuned into Italy and the US matches.

Italy and Brazil are pretty big rivals, but I might give that it try if all else fails.

This is a little bit late but I have heard that the Steps of Rome Cafe in North Beach will be showing the games.

Did you end up just staying home for today's match?

Actually, it ended up that some guys in my apartment building were having a World Cup Party so I ended up watching the game there. It was a fun time!

I heard on NPR, that they are transmitting the games on a big screen at city hall.

I just watched part of it in my apartment with my roommate before we went to work. Nothing special.

I'm looking forward to the USA game tomorrow, surprisingly. I going to see if I can watch with a friend of mine who is visiting tomorrow.

I don't know. We're going to see a play in some place in Berkeley. So we might go down and find some place where they're playing the game before hand.

It was a brave effort, but your team seemed to crumble under the pressure of expectations a bit from what I saw of it.

Final World Cup post--though I must admit that I sort of lost interest after Brazil went out. Yesterday though I went and watched the final at a North Beach bar with a bunch of Dutch fans. They were really funny even as thei lost. Well, its off to Brazil in four years--that is going to CRAZY!
