I have a roommate from Stuttgart. He was chatting with his friends from back home last night. The celebration in the town square had 120,000 people before they started turning people away and apparently everyone in Stuttgart has Monday off. That celebration was bigger than anything Germany had during the WC.

Since I watched the game with him in LA, we celebrated by getting drunk by 10:00 AM.

I know this may be unpopular, but I'm glad to see that Bayern is still going to get some European action next year.
