The World Cup international  soccer tournament is estimated to bring in 700 million viewers this year and although not everybody will be there in person, the spirits of fans should be higher than ever. The games kick off in Rio de Janerio, Brazil but Silicon Valley soccer fans can watch the event at outdoor viewing parties that are being set up in San Jose!
