COLUMBIA -- Soccer fans are flocking to the bars to watch the first games of the World Cup.

Delaney's in Five Points is even opening for breakfast on some mornings with early games.

Fans say they're excited about all the World Cup action.

"It's bigger than the Olympics for essentially, I think it's the one time where everybody comes together for one particular sport in general and it's very interesting and fun to be a part of it," explains James Dennis.

The U.S. takes on England at 1:30 p.m. Saturday.
