ESPN’s World Cup Murals Are Killing It

ESPN’s determined to make you love the World Cup, even if they have to resort to painting cartoon murals to do so. The network commissioned a series of murals, one for each team, and I’d be lying if we said we didn’t want a few of them framed for the rumpus room (especially the Cote D’Ivoire one, because Didier Drogba riding an elephant = ballin’.)

These are all via World Cup Buzz, where you can view the others and read Serbians in the comment section reacting very strongly to the artist's decision not to include Kosovo as part of Serbia.
