FIFA Interactive World Cup

Posted 17-04-2008 at 03:33 PM by EAUK_Omni
Hey everyone!

On Tuesday Baker011 and I were fortunate enough to be able to attend the FIFA Interactive World Cup in Manchester. The event took place in the Ampersand (if anyone knows it) and was certainly one to remember. There were a host of people there including members of the cast of Hollyoaks, Coronation street and even Wayne Rooney himself! The people I recognised from Hollyoaks were (on screen names):
Max
O.B
Hannah
Darren
Newt
Sonny Valentine
Lee (left a while ago)

Cornonation street (on screen names):
Tyrone
David Platt
Jason

There were also some ladies from FHM handing food out through out the course of the night.
During the evening the finals took place with Reggie Yates commentating, leading up to the final itself featuring none other than Chrissy Bullard who went on to become the UK champion once again! A huge congratulations to Chris for that, he'll be heading off to Berlin to show them what the UK are made of!

Overall the event went really well and everyone really enjoyed themselves.
