BLITZER: It's certainly one of the biggest sporting events on the planet, the World Cup. And it's about to begin. Officials in Brazil are scrambling to get everything ready for tomorrow's opening match amid concerns about delays, protests, maybe even some possible violence. CNN's Fred Pleitgen is joining us from Rio right now. So, how does it look, Fred?</s>FREDERIK PLEITGEN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: It looks very good. The atmosphere is just absolutely amazing, Wolf. The past couple of days that we have been here -- and we are, of course, right on the Copacabana, the most famous beach here in Rio. You can see people come in from all over the world. A lot of Americans, also, people from Argentina, people from Uruguay, people all over Europe have been coming in here. But you're absolutely right. The big question is, is Brazil prepared for this World Cup? And there, I would say it is actually still somewhat of a work in progress.</s>BLITZER: All right, unfortunately, we're losing some audio from Fred Pleitgen. We're going to check back with him obviously tomorrow. This is a huge, huge sporting event, the World Cup. We will have full coverage. Clearly -- hopefully, everyone in Brazil, in Rio, Sao Paulo, elsewhere in Brazil, they are ready for what is about to happen over the next several, several days. That's it for me.
