A whole lot of people watched today's U.S.-Germany match, and we're not just talking online viewers or whatever the television ratings turn out to be. Legions of USMNT fans gathered on location in Recife, at the Fan Fest on Copacabana Beach, in D.C.'s Dupont Circle, in Cincinnati's Fountain Square, in Chicago's Grant Park, in downtown Detroit, in Hermosa Beach, California—hell, even in the dugout of Minute Maid Park and on Air Force One, among other places.
Here are just some of the pictures documenting the experiences of so many:
