Yea it looks like my best chance to travel to a decent country to watch the World Cup is going to be in Brazil in 2014. No way am I traveling to Russia or Qatar.Comment

Yeah I would go to Russia before Brazil or Qatar. Or maybe just wait until 2026 China.Comment

FIFA is just trying to be trendy and pick a "developing" nation over us. It isn't even good economically speaking for Qatar anyways. They'll just have a bunch of empty stadiums and hotels when its over. America is such a better choice in every way possible. We've got stadiums and hotels ready right now. We're also a safer and better tourist destination.

No alcohol and deadly fuckin scorpions, oh fuck yeah Qatar and btw their soccer team really sucksTHE HEAT
Those who have watched the odd soccer game may have noticed that for all the players’ skills, they don’t take discomfort too well.
Lord knows how they’d cope with spending a month in what is essentially an oversized Lego Land set inside a furnace.
Earlier this year the temperature in Qatar hit a record 53C. In summer it hovers above 40C much of the time.
Christiano Ronaldo’s hair simply wouldn’t take that kind of punishment.
THE BOOZE BAN
In some languages, “World Cup” translates loosely as “booze-fuelled hoedown”.
So try telling hundreds of thousands of soccer fans that the only way they can buy their own alcohol in Qatar is with a special permit, due to the country’s alcohol ban.
Word from downtown Doha is that these fabled permits can only be obtained at one particular shop, and that you need a permit before you’re allowed to enter the shop.
Makes sense, doesn’t it?
To be fair, you are able to buy alcohol at hotels and bars, but who would risk it, with public inebriation punishable by jail time?
THE FRIENDLY WILDLIFE
And we cop a bad wrap for our dangerous fauna?
Three words: Death Stalker Scorpions.
Mother of God.
If the heat doesn’t get you, there are scorpions roaming the streets with a taste for the flesh of Wayne Rooney fans.
Brown snakes suddenly seem cute and cuddly.
DO THEY PLAY SOCCER THERE?
While Australia is still a fledgling soccer nation and has competed in just three World Cups, that’s three more than Qatar.
Ranked 113th in the world in the latest FIFA rankings, the Qataris have never qualified for the event and aren’t likely to without a host’s free entry pass.
WHERE WILL THEY PLAY?
The Qatar bid centres around the construction of five stadiums, two of which already exist and will be expanded so that all the venues can house more than 40,000 people.
Qatar also announced each of the stadiums would be air conditioned.
I’m sorry, air conditioned?
Have you ever tried to hail an air conditioner repairman in the peak of summer?
What happens when the bank of Fujitsus pack it in during the final?

Nice one FIFA.
What can we look forward to next? Andorra 2026? Zimbabwe 2030? Bangladesh in the rainy season of 2034?
