World Cup Semi Final Last Tuesday

As you may or may not know, Uruguay was the only South American team to make it to the semi-finals.  Everyone thought it'd be Brazil or Argentina or both, but the little country caught in the middle came through.  These pictures were all taken during the game at the food court of Punta Carretas mall.  The whole city (and country, I'm sure) was shut down to watch the game.

There are TVs all around the food court, nice LCD ones, so everyone can see the action while they eat.

Cheerleaders walking around. Thankfully, they were vuvuzuela-less.

And even the McDonalds crew was not frying anything, but glued to the TV.  Uruguay lost, though it was very close at the end.  They did very well for such a small country.
