Was in Europe (England and Denmark) during World Cup '98. Some crazy soccer fans running the streets there, especially in London.

Don't forget back in 1950 in Brazil the US team BEAT England 1-0. (OK, the only reason I know this is that they made a movie about the team and the game last year and my nephew is in it--it's called The Game of Their Lives and is supposed to be released on DVD in July *shameless plug*)

The Indy 500 is still the largest spectator sporting event in the world.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit.
