Howard Webb awards a penalty kick and Vascic, the oldest player in the tournament puts the ball past Arthur Boruc. 1 - 1 final score. Vascic gets the beer! Unbelievable. 3rd minute of stoppage time with Poland thoroughly in control of a 1 – 0 victory, and a Pole gets caught shirt-pulling in the box on a free kick.

1 – 1 final score. Vascic gets the beer!

When I moved to my current location, there was a brew-pub 1 mile away. They have a "beer club" where you pay $250 and for one year you can come in and get one free beer of your choice, limit one per day. So, I didn't miss too many days, but even walking both ways, I gained 40 pounds. Maybe an actual athlete who cares would have more control, or more exercise? I quit after the one year. Some rewards aren't worth the indulgence. Very short sighted award–doesn’t the brewery want to win a goal next year as well?
