World Leaders Hang Out And Watch Sports Together, Too
Check out these awesome pictures of the US President Barack Obama, UK Prime Minister David Cameron, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, President of the European Commission José Manuel Barroso, and others watching the Champions League final together at the G8 Summit.

These were taken during the final penalty shots that decided the game. Cameron is cheering for his team, Chelsea, who won the final. Chancellor Merkel of Germany (in purple) was not so excited to see Bayern Munich lose. Barack Obama just looks really into this whole world football thing.
