Euro 2008 Final, where will you be?
We’re about one hour away from the final of the European Championships. It’s Spain against Germany. It’s the beautiful sport of football (soccer) and the question of the day is, where are you watching it?
If I wasn’t trapped inside working I’d probably be heading over either to the Dover Arms on Denman or the Library Square Pub to catch the action. Had Italy made the final the obvious place to go would have been Commercial Drive, which would have been overcome with celebration had the Azzuri [wp] won.
Also on Denman near Georgia there’s a new snitzle resturant, the name of which escapes me, which looked like a good German place to be watching the final. Any other suggestions for those who might be wandering around trying to get a cold beer and a view of the match?
The Rio Theatre on Broadway at Commercial is hosting a viewing party on the BIG movie screen.
It’ll be a blast.
Okay, that’s where I’d want to be. Insead I’m trapping in a glass bowl downtown trying to hoc cell phones to people who clearly just would rather be in the sun.
Currently I’m relying on the Guardian’s minute-by-minute coverage.
