Thousands of fans were left irate when FIFA and Qatar announced just days before the tournament that no beer would be sold at stadiums.
Budweiser is right down the bottom of the list of beers I would choose to drink.
It did fork out a huge sum to be FIFA’s official beer and has for some time, so I would make do and neck it while watching my nation do battle at the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. As we well know, that plan went up in smoke for hundreds of thousands of fans when FIFA and Qatar announced just days before the tournament that no beer would be sold at stadiums.
Sorry, no beer would be sold to the plebs as those in the extremely expensive hospitality suites could still crack a few cold ones with the boys. Qatar had said in September that it would permit fans with match tickets to buy alcoholic beer at World Cup matches starting three hours before kickoff and ending one hour after the final whistle.✅ True. Budweiser tweeted, then deleted, a post stating, “Well, this is awkward…” after an announcement that alcohol wouldn’t be sold at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
