I went in rooting for Germany but Italy was amazing so they deserved to win. I felt some movement when Balotelli took his shirt off after his second goal. ;)

Overdosing on testosteron - a clear yes when I look at the picture.
Got a few strange looks (remember, I was seeing it with ~45 people I hadn't seen in many years). When he took off his shirt and we got another perfect look at his back I said, Damn, that's almost worth it. :laugh:
Due to highschool reunion, I watched only on and off and since I wasn't that much into the game, I didn't mind that the Germans lost. And since it was Italy, you can call it a tradition. ;)
After the game we heard parades of cars honking and when we went home later the main place and street were full of people partying, cheering and waving Italian flags. Guess there's a big Italian community in town. That was nice. :)
My friend, who still lives there, told us when Germany wins, the whole inner town is completely closed off with partying people, with no way for cars to get through. Public viewing is a win/win situation. The restaurants make good business, and people enjoy seeing the games in a group plus partying afterwards.
I never would have thought Germans can be so spontaneous, taking over the streets and towns for party, and cheerful. Such a thing was completely unknown until some years back.

What happened to Germany? I for sure thought they'd get through....

We had our "official" awards ceremony today. I ordered a cup for the winner (my middle child) and medals for the other two kids (3. and 4. place). With name graved in and everything. Was quite fun. They surely didn't expect that! :laugh:
Now looking forward to the Olympics!
See you again for the World Chamionship in two years (well, I guess earlier on other threads, but you know what I mean). Thanks for playing along in this fun thread with me, Gil! :)
