On Google and several sites I've unsuccessfully tried to find the rules pertaining to the final game, the championship game, and what happens if it is a draw at the end of regulation time. I'm assuming that it will not wind up with co-champions. Do they settle it with a sudden death overtime? Maybe a shootout of some kind? How? Or do they indeed have co-champions?

They play 15minutes each way extra time and if it is still a draw after that, they have a penatly shoot out. 🙂

The team captains are both given cell phones and told to order delivery pizza. The first to have their pizza arive wins. Digiorno will not be counted, and using it is grounds for disqualification. Losing team gets spanked.

Actually, the Goalkeepers of both teams have a boxing match, hence the big gloves, and that's why you always see one jumping around and the other in tears on the floor!

Thanks, guys. I guess I'll go with answer number one, though the others all sound equally valid. Equally valid to each other, not to number one.

Yes, I see that it was true ... in 1954. Interesting site. Interesting information.
