Abstract
This paper analyzes and quantifies the intangible benefits for the German population resultant from Germany's hosting of the FIFA Soccer World Cup 2006. We compare this legacy of Franz Beckenbauer with welfare effects generated by athletic success of the German national squad, labelled "Maradona-Effect" by Rätzel and Weimann (2006) and summarized in Brenke and Wagner (2006). Our analysis relies on data from two contingent valuation surveys before and after the tournament.
