David Beckham touched down in Vancouver Tuesday afternoon, causing a stir among soccer fans.
With Wednesdays match pitting the L.A. Galaxy against our own Vancouver Whitecaps, the famous footballer lent a bit of buzz to a sport that is usually outshone by better established pastimes in this part of the world. While soccer has grown in popularity in Canada in recent years, it still falls far behind hockey, baseball and other big-money games.
Will the soccer craze ever hit North Vancouver? What would it take for you to get interested in the sport the rest of the world is nuts about?
