Here’s an amusing piece of digital ephemera. By now you’ve surely seen French football star Thierry Henry’s blatant handball that set up the goal that sent his national team to the 2010 World Cup finals in South Africa at the expense of the luckless Republic of Ireland. (If not, footage embedded at the bottom of this post.)

Well any time the world witnesses a cultural event of this significance (if you’re in any doubt about the gravity of such matters, consult Goolge), it’s never long before someone creates a flash game based on it. Check out the “Thierry Henry: France Qualify with the Hands! ^[1]” game (trans from French).

The question is: How many people are still playing after they stop laughing?
