Yesterday was the first match of Brazil at the South Africa World Cup against North Corea. Soccer is our national sport and the game was played at 3:30pm local time. Workers were allowed to leave the office 2 hours before the game and schools and commerce were closed. I took these pictures in the center area of Sao Paulo where a huge TV were installed and around 50,000 people followed the game in this place.
My wife and I are hosting a bbq for some Brasilian friends on Sunday during the game. I'm Looking forward to it. Closing work places and shops so everyone can watch the football. That's what I call getting straight your priorities.
ReplyDeleteNice shots by the way. I love the second one with the flag, really graphic.
