Alpinfox Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 Anyone know of sports bars that are showing the game? Quote
TrogdortheBurninator Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 I think Finn McCools in the U District is showing them all. Quote
slothrop Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 The George and Dragon in Fremont is a very popular football-watching spot. Get there early. Quote
Alpinfox Posted July 4, 2006 Author Posted July 4, 2006 The George and Dragon in Fremont is a very popular football-watching spot. Get there early. Yeah, I watched the Enland vs. Trinidad/Tobago game there. A little too crowded for my taste, but maybe it won't be so crowded for a non-English game? Quote
Alpinfox Posted July 4, 2006 Author Posted July 4, 2006 OK, I'm going to Finn McCool's. 4217 University Way Seattle, WA 98105 Game starts at noon. Maybe see someayous there. Quote

olyclimber Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 Its all set. My team (Italia) against the cheeseheads. OMG. Quote
olyclimber Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 What's a "world cup game"? A refined European event, which, like the Tour de France, offends the delicate sensibilities of the rough and ready American ruffians, who, influenced by the landscapes of the frontier land, prefer other American Football, Basketball, or perhaps Baseball. Its all in my book: America: Her Freedoms and Her Psyche. Quote
JoshK Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 I wonder who Bush is rooting for in the battle of "Old Europe"?? Quote
Chaseabbott Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 The G&D is giving out tickets for the final due to the ammount of people that show up. Tickets get in first then everyone else. This is something they did in the past and it worked great but this year they didn't do it and for some reason this year everyone became a soccer fan and it got nutty busy. Quote
JoshK Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 We could hear the G&D perfectly from our house - it was pretty funny. We noticed the cheering theme for soccer is several big build ups of excitment when the ball nears the goal, almost always followed by a groaning sigh when they don't actually score. I could tell the score of the game by simply listening for the rare continued cheers after an actual score. It was thrilling. No really, it was. Quote
