Last night guests gathered around a red soccer ball at the Ico Gallery to raise money for disadvantaged children all over the world.

For a country that prides itself on its football madness, Britain certainly did make a an amateur fumble on Saturday's soccer game with the USA. Robert Green, the Lions' goalie, totally dropped the ball (heh), and it's widely rumored that he will be replaced by next Friday's game. At least the game was fun to watch, right?

The World Cup only comes around every four years, and unless you are a die hard soccer - I mean fútbol- fan with a couple thousand dollars to spare, you will not be in South Africa. But if you are looking for the closest thing to the testosterone fueled booze fest this side of the Prime Meridian, then we have the guide for you! More»

The time has come once again, when the boys with balls come out to play! But for those not interested in watching sweaty, muscly men play 90mins of kicking a round ball around to still have a game end with a scoreless draw - then there is another type of sport watching taking part in the stands.
