New Roper WC poll results!!!

[sponge]

In New York, a Roper telephone poll was conducted earlier is week and
clearly showed that World Cup fever is catching on. After the USA's
stunning victory over Columbia, I can't help but wonder what the
survey's results would be now!!!

Of the 1,034 AMERICANS surveyed, nearly 90% were familiar with the
tournament and 84% were aware it's being held in the United States.
Almost 44% said they will watch World Cup matches on television and 80%
could correctly name a World Cup sponsor.

80% of Americans can remember the name McDonald's? ;-)
