FIFA World Cup and Productivity

During the period of the World Cup tournament economist estimate that there is a significant loss of productivity around the world.  Radio and TV report anecdotes of people gathered around TVs at work, calling in sick, listening to the radio, etc.  I have been in Brazil and Argentina during previous World Cup tournaments.  The streets are deserted.  You can follow the play out on the street as every radio and TV in the country is turned on.  A home team score brings bedlam and a win turns the entire country out into the street to celebrate.

Have you noted a loss of productivity in your company?  If so, how much loss do you estimate you company has incurred?  What about globally?
