World Cup Fever Hits RVA

by | Jun 11, 2010 | POLITICS

We at the mag are watching the games all weekend and are especially hype over USA VS England tomorrow at 2pm. We don’t normally “do” sports but Ian found these great photos by Dean Dorat that capture what the competition means to millions of people worldwide. We leave you with these over the weekend!! See you on Monday.

“This photo is part of the series “The Beautiful Game”. I went from pubs to bars both in London and Paris and took photos of the people watching the World Cup on TV screen.” – Dean Dorat

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is.
