09.24.08 UNDERGROUND SOCCER STADIUM BEING BUILT
Qatar, like the rest of the Middle East, is hotter than a wool sock stuffed with yellow fever. So in a way, it makes sense that the tiny nation’s capital city, Doha, is building “The Wall,” the world’s first underground stadium.
If all goes to plan, ‘The Wall’… will claim two firsts: The world’s first underground stadium and the world’s first open-air, air-conditioned stadium. [...]
The stadium is apparently part of Doha’s forthcoming bid to host the 2018 World Cup and if the location was decided purely down to stadium architecture, they may have a chance. The one concern? The Wall will only be able to seat 11′000 people.
Yes, that’s the one concern about a World Cup in the Middle East. The stadium is too small. No, they’re not worried about playing in 130-degree heat or drawing a huge international audience to a region of the world that serves as home to terrorist organizations or that seriously, that entire part of the Earth is horrible. Get bent, Middle East.

Bin Laden’s future hiding spot.
i sure hope 11′000 people is more than 11,000 people…
the other problem with the middle east is that you don’t know what the woman you’ve brought back to your tent looks like until she’s removed all of her fucking veils, and by then it’s too late, so fuck it, I guess I’m going to nail another ugly Egyptian, you better not tell anyone or I’ll have your brothers stone you in the center of the village, honey.
Or so I hear.
jihad raining down on us infidels in 3….2….
‘Qatar: If you martyred yourself killing joos you’d be home already.’
Those fun loving Taliban used to stone/execute people - well, women - in football stadiums so there’s the half-time entertainment taken care of.
So what if it has AC, the Arab guy next to you will still smell.
Can’t be any worse than going to a local KFC, slaappy.
I dunno. Drunken English hooligans vs. Islamic suicide bombers seems like a win-win scenario.
Say what you want, but I guarantee that it would have plenty of Khlau Kalash booths.
So…an underground stadium is called “The Wall”? This means their outdoor racquetball court will be called “The Basement”.
Even more confusing is how an underground stadium can be open air.
I knew those bunker buster bombs would come in handy one day.
Isn’t that whole area a little…iffy?
Americans…. don´t be so eager to demonstrate your ignorance towards world issues. You know only what CNN tells you. Terrorists?? Are you even able to LOCATE IT on a map? Their economy is sure doing a hell of a lot better than yours..
