Local soccer Local soccer fans watched the USA vs. Paraguay FIFA World Cup game on the big screen at the Crystal Theatre on June 12. The energy was high in the mostly-full theater, from everyone standing for the National Anthem to standing ovations for each USA “gooooooooal.” The home team won with a final score of 4-1. The Crystal will continue showing several games over the course of the tournament, starting with Brazil vs. Haiti on Friday at 6:30pm. Admission is free and snacks and drinks are available for purchase. Visit crystaltheatrecarbondale.com for the schedule.
