In NYC, World Cup mania is bigger than I've ever seen for any other sporting event, ever. Everyone is watching the games on their computer during work. This seems to be acceptable behavior because all the managers and CEOs are doing it too. Every bar in the city with TVs is open early for the early games. The "dive bar" by my apartment installed two flat panel TVs just for the Cup and they never had TVs before. I'm not really a soccer fan but I would say if the sport wasn't popular in the USA before, it is now, and will probably become more popular in the future.
