serge shows his loot

After almost a month of excitement and sleepless nights,the tournament has come to an end and so has La Polla América.

The first place went to papichulo and gringo. One of them is a Tigres fan and the other is American. This proves that knowledge has little to do with who wins these things. It’s all luck.

The restitution goes to serge, who gets his $15 back.

You can see the final standings here.

Congratulations and stay tuned for future Pollas!

Two games before La Polla América comes to its end, the current leader reports via MSN Messenger of the detrimental side effects of playing in La Polla (English translation here):

• sirrony says: shalom motek
• Salo Mongol Dman says: que pasó
• sirrony says: nada Marcos, ya no vuelvo a entrar a una polla… si me llego a ganar la polla voy a tener que meter todo mi dinero para arreglarme la úlcera que me esta dando del ansia
• Salo Mongol Dman says: no cantes victoria, aún no es demasiado tarde para que “se caiga el sistema”
• sirrony says: esta muy cerrado
• sirrony: pero neta no he podido dormir los ultimos dos dias
• sirrony: y no de la emoción sino del nervio e imaginándome que podía pasar en los partidos

It’s here! After the unparalleled success of last year’s FIFA 2006 Polla (82 participants!) we have put together a similar but better polla for the Copa América.
