USA World Cup in Serious Doubt Due to In-continents: TV Report (Humor)

Note the photo in the article above shows South America, while the heading over the image reads “South Africa“. Seems like there is some confusion in the US as to which continent exactly hosts the Soccer World Cup during 2010. Please be sure, if you do attend, that the plane tickets you buy takes you to the correct continent… Note: South Africa is a COUNTRY in the continent AFRICA. South America is a continent, which doesn’t have much to do with the soccer world cup hosting during 2010, except that some of the teams in COUNTRIES of that CONTINENT will be attending, and that perhaps a few American citizens might wind up there searching for the world cup due to this news report :)


To rub it in a bit more, here is a map showing the difference between AFRICA (On the right) and SOUTH AMERICA (On the left). Note again, South Africa is a COUNTRY, not a CONTINENT!
