Wur dey keepin it…i wanna lil touch
I think this will be the closest we will get to it. Come on Gombey Warriors. LOL
I won a ticket and went and I don’t know why they wouldn’t let anybody take pictures? So many of us had cameras and this was a let down. I saw online that other countries were allowed to take photos when it was in their country, Jamaica, South Africa etc.
some body snatch it and hide it down the Wreck so we can add it to the other trophies lol
lol
ole!!!
That’s a real trophy rec man
Too bad it’s not in the shape of an actual cup. It would be great to drink rum swizzle out of it.
Can we go And see it ?
Probably a fake like something from 1972.
I wonder if they put de sniffer dogs on it. LMAO
The World Cup waited for the new govt,before coming to Bermuda.
The kids loved this and hats off to organizers..my son has a picture that will last a lifetime!!
Cash for gold?
Is it going now, or any chance of us all getting to go and see it?
Picture #15. When will the Premier and PLP Leader stand together for national issues?
“to return to Brazil in late April 2014, in time for the start of the World Cup”. Where it will remain like the original (at least before it was stolen). Brazil for WC #6.
why Opposition Leader Bean on crutches? please tell me you lot didnt kick up in the ankle because of his recent rambling in the house?
He twisted his ankle playing football.
Someone get me that trophy so I can sell it on emoo or eBay.
Full story please Ber News. Can the public see this/details, if not, why not?
It looks like the OBA/PLP and the BFA used up most of the tickets.
Yeah, cheap fuc%***!
The tour only allows to keep the cup for a period of 24hrs, today is shown in the Dominican Republic.
Wonder if gold exchange will accept it?! lmao
