Question: The United States is hosting the World Cup again in 2026. The last time it did, in 1994, the tournament’s final was played at which historic California stadium?

Answer: The Rose Bowl in Pasadena. On July 17, 1994, before more than 94,000 fans, Brazil beat Italy 3–2 on penalty kicks after a scoreless final, making Brazil the first nation to win four World Cup titles. The Rose Bowl was the largest venue of that tournament and hosted eight matches in all, including the final.
