    oh, well that sucks :( Disney really needs a place that caters for non American Sports, especially as they are clearly trying so hard to appeal to that market, in 2011, i was trying to watch the Rugby World Cup Final and most cast members i spoke to werent even sure what Rugby was, and i couldnt find anywhere that was showing it, and neither could the rather annoyed kiwi that i sat next to in Fantasmic the night before

    It is only a pop-up store, so it will not be permanent. I'm not sure of the end date, but expect it for a few months only.

    This could prove popular as long as the shirts arent overpriced, especially if they are transmitting live games from Premier League, La Liga and Bundesliga and maybe Serie A, if it s a big game (derby, champions league etc) then i can imagine that area getting very full with Brits, Europeans and South Americans Will be even better if they have it as an interactive area as well, somewhere to have a few shots, try out the different products, maybe daily keepy up competitions with prizes (extra FP, money off etc) i know a lot of poeple who even on holiday like to have a kick around and the average father and son will be happy in here while the average mother and daughter shop elsewhere

    I think it will pick up once the World Cup starts.

    I can't wait to see how these types of merchandise goes over. A lot of buyers or a lot of guests window shopping?

    This is possible the best and worst news all at the same time.

    I tried to go in once but I accidentally brushed up against someone and they immediately dropped to the ground, grabbed their shin, and looked around pleading for someone to punish me. Bring on the flaming!
