Oh yea.
I forgot.. we went out last night to be in the middle of everything after the World Cup game and it was really crazy. The entire Champs Elysees from the Louvre to the Arc was full of people. There were fireworks, screaming, crying, cheering, chanting... everything. Riot police were out in full gear to break up the few fights between the Italians and the French and there were police guarding the Arc. Some people threw fireworks into the crowd which was actually pretty scary to me. I'm not sure how dangerous they were, but people kept running from them, so I'm guessing it's not exactly recommended. The riot police were very effective at breaking up fights so overall it wasn't too scary or dangerous. Just loud and exciting to be a part of. People really liked us because they thought Jeff was press with his great big 200 2.0 lens.
