España! España! España!
My favorite game. My favorite team (after FC Barcelona, but so many players from FCB make it to the national squad, it seems silly to split hairs). And champions of the 2012 European Cup. What more can a sports fan ask for?
I happened to be walking down Columbus in North Beach (San Francisco, CA) when the Italy-Germany game began. Several cafes had the game on TV, but the owners of this one went all out, throwing open the windows and doors so that passers-by (many wearing the blue of Italy) could share in the waves of joy and gloom that radiated out of the flat screen TV's.
