Despite the Team USA draw, World Cup fever has officially hit Utah
Rabid soccer fans from the Beehive State packed the downtown Beer Bar for Monday's USA opener vs. Wales; cheering loudly when the red, white and blue scored to take an early lead.
Burrell said Beer Bar spent months preparing for the world's biggest sporting event, but admitted he was a little nervous when just a handful of people were waiting when doors opened a few hours before game time. "If you look at this scene, [USA fans] are all here, they're all supporting the U.S., so I'm just really happy everyone showed out," said Elbert, a fan enjoying the game that ended in a 1-1 tie.
