“Wearing Adidas running shoes and carrying a Spanish newspaper with photos of the World Cup on the cover, Jose Rivas, a resident of Sterling walks up to a Sprint Cellular service desk in Herndon and handed over his cell phone information and asks to pay off his monthly bill.

“It should be $91 or something, I want to pay it all off now,” Rivas said in Spanish to the clerk, Carlos Hernandez, a young man wearing a button-down shirt tucked into neatly-pressed suit pants.

After a few strokes on a keyboard and checking the status of the phone with Sprint’s database, he let him know that his total is just under $90. Rivas paid it with a 100 dollar bill. “
