So this was the main reason for the trip – to go watch World Cup that took place at Disney’s World of Sports. It was a great event to watch, with 10 or so fields plus the main grandstands. Even better, the team I was backing (LA Ironmen) opened up a can of whoop ass on the team Tara was backing (Russian Legion) which made it all that much better. Finals were a best of three and a close game at the end of the third round kept things exciting.

At one point there was a one on one standoff between both teams. The Russian was running out of paint, and picking up paintballs off the ground wherever he could find them. He ended up bumping to another bunker that had a pod of paint on the ground and kept things going. Check the 10 or so refs standing around for the 5 minutes or so waiting for it to end. LA made it happen and finished the game.

At one point, this guy sitting by us puts on a dick suit and starts chanting "USA, USA!!!" It didn’t really have much effect on the crowd so he ran down in front of the main stands and ran back and forth. People loved it, security did nothing but just look at him, and eventually he just came back and sat down because there was no-where else to take it. This is something the US Open lost a long time ago – no backpack checks, no problems with booze, and if you want to run around in a dick suit, no problem. Check the video…

The parking was so bad that they ended up sending people 6 miles away to Animal Kingdom and taking a shuttle back to the event. Instead of doing that, we parked a mile or two away at the ABA BMX Nationals and walked. We got to watch some of that too, but it was mostly little kids when we were around.

There were two brothers rocking this haircut and drinking Red Bulls…

This is the lot when we got back to our car, the only one around.
