Searching on Wikipedia for World Cups in 2011, I found out they hold a World Cup in American Football. It is being held this July in Austria. Now I don't really care about gridiron, but it produces two groups of nations to link together in the quizzical arts. Interestingly, theres a few more World Cups in various sports this year, and maybe they'll get their own linked quiz.
