I landed in Vegas on July 3rd and took in the World Cup semis at the ESPN Zone in the New York New York Hotel and Casino. I laid $20 on both Italy and France and was handsomely rewarded. The Italy game was wild as Eye-talians came out in droves. Even they recognized the acting prowess of Francesco Totti. When I wasn't IMing with Sarah, Lauren, Rich or Nancy I was chatting for a while with this one dude who's buddy bet a grand on Germany. OOOOPS! I consumed like 100 ozs of beer and then promptly gave my money back at the craps tables. Damn you 7-rollers! The France Game wasn't that rowdy, but there were a decent amount of upset Portugal fans there.
