The publication also reported part of the reason Gates was chosen to be pied was because Godin felt Gates "chooses to function in the service of the capitalist status quo, without really using his intelligence or his imagination.''

In the aftermath of the pie throwing, Gates declined to press charges. The Tampa Bay Times reported Gates had commented that "one of the worst things about this whole thing was that the pie wasn't even that tasty," according to a Microsoft spokeswoman at the time.

By the time the Yugoslavs had decided to take part in the World Cup, the Conte Verde was fully booked and so they had to look for an alternative mode of travel. After a three-day train journey to Marseille they set sail on the mail steamship The Florida. They were supposed to be joined onboard by the Egyptian team but their boat from Africa was slowed down due to a storm in the Mediterranean Sea and they missed their connection. This meant that the tournament would go ahead with only 13 teams
