GQ: Atlanta Bar's Best for World Cup Viewing

By A. Scott Walton
Go ahead and admit it: You like to watch.
Soccer, that is. And you'll get more than an eyefull of the world's game in June when the World Cup descends on multiple venues in South Africa, and captivates the media's attention like never before.
The fashion world, as evidenced by the latest Vanity Fair cover piece, has already embraced the matches to unfold. All the major brands _ Adidas, Nike, Puma, Umbro, etc. _ are rolling out special collections centered around the sport's major teams and players.
If they're not household names, they will be soon.
And Atlanta's not left out of the fray. In a special section of its June issue dedicated to the World Cup, GQ singles out the grungy Brewhouse Cafe in Little Five Points as one of the six "best soccercentric bars in America".
As if parking spaces at the Brewhouse aren't scarce enough, GQ reports, "They're setting up a tent in the parking lot for match viewings on 3-D TVs"!
If you know of a better place for viewing the World Cup, let ESS know. And if you can think of better outfits for ladies to wear than the special edition get-ups British-based Umbro produced for the occasion (above), do share!
