Flat earthers will appreciate. On Flat Earth, the World Cup is flat, and we play Frisbee instead of Football

Nice entries so far everyone!
That was my first idea, but I chose something else. Nice work 
Just want to say hi!
I been hanging around this forum while tinkering with Blender for some time now. About time that I registered on the forum. I thought it would be nice to enter my first post in this category. These challenges really provide so much inspiration for a noob, with all kinds of entries around the theme. I can’t believe what you guys comes up with in just a few days.
So, thanks for the inspiration.
Russian Sky
pure entry, 1000 samples. http://blender-weekends.franciscocharrua.com/World-Cup.Russian-Sky.html

Hi and welcome to the WC’s (not world cup 
) The more the merrier as far as I am concerned. Look forward to seeing more entries and hopefully soon one of your entries as well. Welcome to the wonderful world of Blender.
Thanks a lot @FlyingBanana! I’m trying to finish a render I’m working on for entry into the WIP section (scary thought). Maybe I even dare to try a WC entry down the road

Coincidentally, my first idea was a drink/beverage, the glass is based on the shape of the trophy. Wanna make a float but failed in making the ice cream texture… 
I just loved how no one seems to like football and decided to misinterpret the theme

World Cup
Here is my pure competing entry for this weekend challenge. Cycles render with 327 samples and denoiser on.
I have to call this one open because i reused the arm from Manuel Bastioni’s great plugin.

lol. Soccer was not very popular in west Texas in the late 60’s. I didn’t realize people actually watched the game until I lived in Germany.
I still have not seen a full soccer game. I had to look up what soccer terms are used for my entry.
2018 Gallup poll for favorite sports in the US: football 37%, basketball 11%, baseball 9%, soccer 7%. So it is gaining popularity.
Can’t wait for US football to start. Hopefully all the silliness has stopped and I can start watching again.
Glad to know that I’m not the only one who doesn’t like soccer that much
Also, almost done with my entry, meanwhile here’s a screenshot

For me, it’s more because of I’m not too comfortable in modelling complex scene or highly detailed real object (i.e. the trophy) esp. in short amount of time. 
Colors of the Countries
My competing and open entry. My god it took so long to do the flags, so many textures
Almost everything done in blender from modelling and compositing but most textures were from online.Awesome and creative entries so far everyone
