Imagine a sports stadium filled with national soccer team colors. They are on flags, on fan's clothing, and even painted on faces and hair. Imagine the roar of the crowd when the ball flies past the goalkeeper to score. Imagine victory parties in streets and restaurants.
All this is more than just imagination for nearly a million World Cup ticket holders. Fans have paid between US $300 and US $750 to watch their teams perform all sorts of fancy footwork this month. When it's all over, only one team will become the new world soccer champion.
The world has been gearing up for the World Cup for two years. National teams from every continent competed first in their own regions. Then World Cup action kicked off on May 31 in Seoul before a crowd of almost 65, 000.
For a whole month, 32 teams will compete. They'll play in 10 cities in Korea and in 10 cities in Japan. On June 30, more than 70, 500 fans will pack Yokohama's International Stadium to watch the best two teams vie for the World Cup trophy.
But the playing field isn't the only battleground. Contending for TV rights is just as hard a game. Kirch, a German company, owns the rids. They sold the rights among various South American countries for a total of US $944 million. And the United Kingdom may have paid up to US $240 million(the price was not revealed).
So if you're not lucky enough or rich enough to be a ticket holder, just turn on the 1'V. See the colors, hear the roar, watch the footwork, and imagine being there yourself.
