10 Winners in the USA-Germany World Cup Wet T-Shirt Contest

It was raining cats and dogs in Recife, Brazil, during the USA-Germany World Cup match on Thursday. While the downpour made things difficult for the players, the rain paired with Team USA's white jerseys made things all the better for spectators.

Arena Pernambuco quickly became a giant wet T-shirt contest, so naturally, we ranked the players on their greatest assets: their feet! Just kidding. Their cleats were probably waterproof.

Talk about a wet hot American summer.
