It is over, finally, the World Cup 2014.
So much soccer everywhere, empty cities during matches, and vuvuzelas left over from previous events, it was hard to escape.
The Germans celebrated their win - starting at just before midnight in the K-Land - into the small hours of the morning.
Fireworks were going off in several places around town, car horns fell silent much later.
In the woods, a lone middle aged German male wearing a white DFB soccer association t-shirt walked home in the dark at around 3 AM. Though drunk, he was cautious and stepped off of the road onto the shoulder to let cars pass.
As the headlights swept fields and meadows, we wondered: did the Princeton based Global Consciousness Project register something?
Lo and behold, Germany vs. Brazil is on their results page in red, meaning registering as a "significant" event. Scroll down the page to table entry 482.
At least one positive use of a mega event.
