Default Prepartion for the North American Fans
If you're staying up, how are you planning to spend the time?

For me, I'm going to make an attempt to catch up on the whole week's tv recorded on the DVR so far till 3am.

It's an awkward time for me. It will be around 1 AM, can't really go to bed and then wake up.

Either go hard or go home.

I was told that "sleep is for the weak". And that it truly is. I can't imagine being able to go to sleep just because I'll have to stay up the night. Just can't do it. There will be a lot of sleepless nights and days

For me: match starts 1:30am .... I'm planning to sleep for 2-3 hours prior match starts!
I know this would be very hard to do and most likely you guys will find me here, not sleeping!

Hola here from Dallas, Texas. The game starts 2:30 AM my time. I plan on sleeping and setting up the alarm but I don't think that's gonna happen. Right now I am so excited and jumpy that I don't think I will be able to go to sleep. Got loads of snacks and soda to keep me awake.

some guests are invited and I am trying my best to push all the thoughts of homework (also the classes im about to fail this semester) out of my mind for tonight.

I know for a fact that when the game starts, there will be no sleep in my eyes. TONIGHT, thereby, i declare offcial EID for myself.

Same here man! I didn't sleep more than 2-3 hrs in the last 2 days. It's 8 PM here in Toronto now, and I'm thinking of having a short nap of 3-4 hrs cuz it really has been the longest day of my life so far........I have been checking my watch in every 2-3 minutes throughout the day!
