Gay World Cup

On Saturday, for a short piece that ran in today's Guardian (UK), I dropped by the Andy restaurant in Palermo to interview several international players signing up for the 2007 running of the Gay World Cup of fútbol here in Buenos Aires's Parque Sarmiento. The competition was intense: a player on the defending champs, London's Stonwall FC, said they'd be disappointed if they didn't make the finals, a road made tougher by the addition of a bunch of South American teams to this year's event, the first played in Latin America.

I'd previewed the upcoming World Cup on two small Gridskipper posts (1, 2) in months past, so by my previously stated Law of 3, now that I've shamelessly flogged the story I'll move on from the subject.
