Powerade was a major sponsor. I drank too much Powerade (even took one home last night for lunch today). I think it makes you thirstier.

And Balogun is out for the start of next game against Belgium. Harsh penalty at this stage of the games.
A fan was holding a big sign that said 'Sun's out! Balogun's out!' That was prophetic.

So fun. FIFA dominated my last two weeks. It was a great run for RM, uncharted territory. Glad I went.
I'll try to watch the upcoming games because now I'm invested, but I've got a full schedule. I'm free on Monday for the US v Belgium. Tix as low as $2676. We'll see...
