Also, gotta give tremendous credit to South Africa, its people and the beautiful continent of Africa. They did a great job. The crowd was pumped and even with the annoying vuvuzelas, it was still a crazy excited audience. I didn't see any news of major violence (except in Uganda, but that has nothing to do with them). It seems that security was great, the fans enjoyed the place, the world audience gained respect for South Africa's modern buildings and architecture. I guess this had the 3rd largest audience ever. Also, this was huge for the continent of Africa. You could see the Africa pride was high amongst the people (something I wish I would've seen amongst our African Americans).
In the end, I think the bar has been set high for Brazil. They are going to have to come up with game A in 2014.
