World Cup Viewing Party


Whether you call it soccer, football, futbol or just simply the beautiful game, the FIFA World Cup is here again!   32 teams have qualified for the month long tournament to see who will be crowned World Champions for the next four years.  Go team USA (unless of course they are playing England, then my true loyalties will show!)  Download the schedule here


We have received a lot of calls seeing if we can project the game.  Here are some quick facts:

Can you project it onto one of your screens?
Yes we can, it's great to grab some friends and watch together.

Can we view it outside?
Unfortunately the games are during the day and the sun is a lot brighter than a projector, so no.

What other options do I have?
Some people record the games and play them later at night.  With the games being during the day many people are at work anyway so this is a great option.

We can also set up in gyms, barns, wine caves etc. and view during the day.  We have even set up in a garage with the doors open with people sitting outside in the sun.

Do you have any cool viewing party ideas?
Before the game set up FIFA soccer on your favorite games console and play out a game between the teams that are playing in the game you are going to watch.



 Foosball tables are loads of fun, interactive and help get everyone pumped for the game.

Decorationswith a World Cup theme set the scene.

You may have a big screen, but make sure every room your guest will be in has a screen to view the game.

Who will win?
Search me... Brazil on home soil will be tough to beat.

What about the USA?
My prediction is the USA will creep out of the group stage after upsetting Germany and my beloved England will FINALLY break the curse and NOT loose on penalties (hey, a guy can hope)!
