Ronaldinho Gaucho's Home is Listed on Airbnb for the World Cup
Laura McQuarrie — June 4, 2014 — World
If you're planning on being in Rio de Janeiro during the upcoming 2014 World Cup, Ronaldinho Gaúcho himself has a suggestion of where you could stay, provided you've got $15,000 to spare on a daily basis.
The Brazilian footballer is hoping to cash in on the the many tourists that will be coming to Brazil for the games by renting out his own mansion on Airbnb. Naturally, many were skeptical when the seven-bedroom, six-bathroom house was listed on Airbnb, but Ronaldinho confirmed in a tweet that it is indeed his house. As well as a spacious interior, Ronaldinho's house also includes a pool, gardens, a terrace, a kid's playhouse and a stage for live music—plus, there's got to be a TV where you can kick back and watch some of the games.
