Big game on the big screen
Carmike showing World Cup games
062310 WORLD CUP 02
Local soccer fans watch the World Cup at Carmike Cinema 12 in this Wednesday, June 23, 2010, file photo, as the United States team just misses on a goal opportunity against Algeria. The U.S. won on a dramatic goal in the waning seconds to advance.
Four years ago in South Africa, the United States celebrated what was arguably its biggest moment in international soccer as Landon Donovan’s stoppage time goal against Algeria spurred the Americans into the knockout rounds and won their group. Half a world away in Statesboro, hundreds of fans erupted into a crazy scene while taking in the game at Carmike Cinemas. When the Stars and Stripes hit the pitch for their first game of the 2014 World Cup Monday night, Carmike will once again open its doors to fans looking to cheer on the national squad.
