32 countries have played in the cup since France 98.  Stadiums vary, but in this one the average is between 40-50 thousand I would say.  Brazil was the pre-tournament favorite, but France knocked them out in the quarterfinals.  No, it is not the 80th world cup, the FIFA World Cup began in 1930, and is held every 4 years, and was not held between 38 and 50 due to WWII.  So there was a tournament in 30, 34, 38, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66, 70, 74, 78, 82, 86, 90, 94, 98, 02, and now in 06.  So this cup is the 18th.  Regardless of who wins this tournament (because both are previous winners), only seven countries have won the world cup.  Uruguay in 30, Italy in 34, Italy in 38, Uruguay in 50, West Germany in 54, Brazil in 58, Brazil in 62, England in 66, Brazil in 70, West Germany in 74, Argentina in 78, Italy in 82, Argentina in 86, Germany in 90, Brazil in 94, France in 98, Brazil in 02, and either Italy/France in 06.
