Rio’s burning

“Hearing that soccer was the world’s most popular sport was sort of like hearing that broccoli was the world’s most popular food. You want to ask, ‘Have you tried pizza?'”

I have to agree with Chuck Klosterman on that one. We went to our first soccer game in Rio, and although there wasn’t much action on the field, there sure was plenty in the stands. Keep in mind this video was shot BEFORE the game had even started.
