Argentina-Brazil World Cup Match!

ARGENTINA is playing BRAZIL in the World Cup Qualifier Match in ROSARIO tomorrow, September 5 2009!!! Ok, so tickets were insanely expensive, and I can't go, so I'll be watching it on the big screen of my local bar here in Buenos Aires, but for those of you lucky enough to have managed to snatch up a ticket, you may want to consider staying overnight in Rosario!! Traffic will be backed up all day getting there, and then after the game, I'm sure the streets won't clear till the early morning...and if we WIN, who knows when you'll be able to get back on the road? Your best bet is to drop off your stuff at a hostel in the afternoon, chill until the game, HAVE A BLAST while the rest of us grumble and watch on TV, and then party the night away! You can take a bus to and from the stadium so you aren't stuck in your car when it starts. Then go home to your hostel, get a good night's sleep, and make the trek back to good ol' BA on Sunday. Cool Raul Hostel is a super awesome, fun, hip hostel in Rosario with really cool, young staff and guests. No WAY are you NOT going to have the time of your life if you stay here!! If you want something a little more calm, check out the two really cool, great location hostels in Rosario at Minihostels.com Have fun, and make sure to wear your country colors!!!!!!
