While World Cup watch parties typically filled offices, public parks, and bars across New York City, one gathering took place in a starkly unusual location: Rikers Island correctional facility, a site better known for its overcrowding and violence than for hosting social events. More than 100 inmates, dressed in tan uniforms, took seats at tables facing a projection screen in a gymnasium at the complex’s main intake center.
They gathered to watch the semifinal match between England and Argentina, with colorful balloon towers topped by soccer ball balloons framing the screen.
