Even Pele gets robbed in Brazil
Pele, the soccer legend himself, was robbed by an armed gang earlier this month. Pele was the passenger in a car that was stuck in traffic when a gang of 10 armed men surrounded his vehicle. The men took his gold necklace, a mobile phone and a watch.
His driver was also robbed, however when the gang recognized Pele, they returned items to the driver but not to the super star.
"Pele, who is said to have remained calm during the robbery, apparently believed the men were high on drugs."
Police say these types of robberies are common in Brazil, which I'm sure is not what FIFA wants to hear ahead of the 2014 World Cup.

Thats really funny to know these are common in Brazil. Then during 2014, the world cup trophy can be stolen.
