There’s money to be made…and everyone is in on it!

The World Cup frenzy is everywhere! Ever since the start of the Soccer World Cup, the beautiful game has even turned into a marketing game between companies from around the globe. The tournament has proved to be the best marketing tool available and everyone is in on it! Whether you’re looking for silver cutlery or imported silk, you’re bound to find a World Cup special to go along with it.

And with a Soccer World Cup theme you can go far…So this week we’re taking a look at some of the products that have gone even further to make money when capitalizing on the interest in the World Cup. At Golden Riviera you too can take the opportunity to make some money…all you need to do is play!

The Ultimate Soccer World Cup desk- 14,700 dollars


This is what every soccer fan could ever wish for. Decorated in your team’s colors, soccer crazy fans can experience every second of action even when working at the office. This is probably one of the most expensive seats at the World Cup, but comes with a 19 inch LCD that provides an exceptional view at least. To capture the noise in the stadium, the desk comes complete with a 350watt sound system as well as a fridge to keep those drinks at perfect temperature. Soccer crazy fans will most definitely go mad for this item, and the manufacture will too… for the profit the World Cup has provided.

TomTom GO 910: 920 dollars


Together with a herd of technology manufacturers capitalizing from the World Cup, this satellite navigation device was released with a free World Cup package that allows you to download instructions spoken by Sven Goran Erickson (England coach) himself. If you’re looking for information concerning the World Cup, the GO 910 has the ability to inform you on soccer points in Germany as well. With a wide variety of navigational equipment available, the G 910 is sure to be at the top of the selling list knowing that it is extra special concerning the extra special features.

Germany’s making the most of it…


In Germany the locals too found a way to capitalize from the World Cup. In Berlin it is almost impossible to find a pizza service without a soccer deal. One pizza place has taken the initiative to add a World Cup special to their menu which consists of a Salami, Atlantic and a Hawaii pizza altogether with 5 LITRES of beer…


Berlin Supermarkets also deemed it necessary to attract soccer tourists with their unique grocery experience. Some of the “specials” on offer are: World Cup potato salad, Soup strikers- soup with soccer ball noodles, Half time pizza with curry sausage, assorted snacks in the shape of soccer balls and players.

FooToo Kit: 25 dollars


The FooToo Kit is ideal for those that are particularly superstitious when it comes to international soccer. This little FooToo doll comes with a number of national emblems and colors so that you can dress your doll in the team uniform of those you want to hex. The doll also comes complete with 5 needles; unfortunately the doll didn’t work when the U.S. played Czech Republic…

Searching the web for Soccer World Cup pages is almost impossible since there is a soccer frenzy that has also hit the search engines. To make it easier for you to get what you’re looking or, the Golden Riviera Group casinos have created a page where you can see all the fixtures, results and standings that you may require during the tournament. There’s also a promotion running where you can win big!
