The Hyundai Fun Park has stationed itself in the Old Town Square for the televising of the World Cup. During the day bands play and there are tons of vendors. There is a stage right next to the huge screen that shows the games. All games are televised and every game gathers all the tourists and townspeople to the center to cheer for there team. People dress up and wear flags and run around chanting. Its like rush week! You can buy beers, gelato, sausages....sit or stand to cheer for your team. The USA game was quite fun although I decided not to cheer for us out loud since I just didn't want to bring attention to myself. One of the guys on our trip wore USA flag shorts and a USA map on his shirt...umm ya I stood nowhere near him. There was tons of USA fans and overall it was super fun being there watching it. I think that its such a cool thing to see everyone gather to be all sporty. I am so glad to be in Europe during the World Cup!
