Playboy Undercover: The Almost 40-Year-Old Virgin "I am 38 and I still haven’t had my first kiss yet—which means yes.… I am a virgin too."

As usual, Americans were sort of aloof about the whole thing, while the rest of the world went wild for the games. “If only they would try to wrap their heads around the beauty of a truly global excuse to yell, drink beer and watch sports over breakfast, during work and into the wee hours, maybe they would overcome their reluctance and embrace an idea of universal partying,” the magazine wrote at the time.
In an effort to inspire Americans to the sport, Playboy assembled its own World Cup team, bringing together 14 “all-star beauties” to represent Playboy in the big event. “Think of them as Playboy’s World Soccer Team,” the magazine urged. “Admit it: You like this sport more already.”
