You can still buy it just not in the stadium.Haha Qatar have banned all alcohol sales at the last minute. Rip England fans
And FIFA's sponsor deal with Budweiser.
Still a rather big deal. Especially after saying you will allow it for 12 years and rescint your permission less than 2 days in advance.You can still buy it just not in the stadium.
It doesn't make sense as FIFA made Brazil sell it in the stadiums even though they didn't want to when they hosted it.
I'm sure there's a Henry Ford style "you can have any colour you like as long as its black" slogan for Qatar but "you can have any sexual preference you like as long as you're straight"the festival of diversity
I’d stop short of going full-kit wanker () but takes all sorts and if that floats their boat then that’s fine. Seems very clear the fake fan accusations don’t hold any water.If I were Indian and well off enough, I’d be going to a WC on my doorstep (just a short 3h flight away) that’s for sure, and being from a nation with no noteworthy National team, I’d absolutely be adopting one to make it more fun.
I like football and there’s not much else on for the next month.Wait... people are actually going to watch this? Why?
it is far more mental not to.Wait... people are actually going to watch this? Why?
They're football fans, it's a World Cup and it's possible to watch games without contributing materially.Wait... people are actually going to watch this? Why?

Nor in La Liga I think, at least when I've been.Alcohol isn't sold within stadiums during UEFA games as well. Or has that changed?

It is things like this that you can argue is about respecting other countries cultures but not the whole anti gay bs that qatar has.Tweet

Is it though? Ah well you enjoyit is far more mental not to.
I'm a huge, self confessed craft beer wanker but I love a cold Bud on a hot day, especially if I am watching sports.I don't drink it but I hate beer elitism, most commercial beers taste fine. The only commercial beer I think is truly awful is Coors.
It kinda sums up theocratic regimes like Qatar too.The fact that the fat cats in the stadium lounge are still allowed to drink alcohol, just perfectly sums up FIFA: greedy, corrupt scumbags with zero respect for fans
Looking like the Fyre Festival over there.Tweet

Whilst we're at it lads we should also consider protesting about the food.
Haha genuinely spot onLooking like the Fyre Festival over there.
I'm very worried about the World Cup equivalent of this guy. He's going to get his head chopped off for offering a BJ to save the World Cup.Haha genuinely spot on
Will be a Netflix doc on this next year, ‘Game’s Gone: Qatar 2022’
You know you’ll be watching. Stop pretending you won’t.Wait... people are actually going to watch this? Why?
