WORLD CUP USA ’94 / QUARTERFINALS : Spotlight : WRITE ON
- Share via
A 30-foot high inflatable soccer ball tethered outside the Rose Bowl means different things to different people. For some, it offers a shady respite as the weary World Cup fan sits and chows down on a $4 hamburger. For others, it serves as a handsome backdrop for those “Hey Uncle Bebeto, wish you were here” family photos.
And for many, it’s an industrial-strength graffiti ball.
Among the scrawl found on some of the ball’s lower white panels:
“Go Jackie’s Army.”
“Tony Meola USA No. 1”
“Forza Italia, St. Louis”
And, from one wishful thinker:
“Go Scotland ‘98”
