Even for the 2026 World Cup, I don't think that alcoholic beverages other than beer will be available at the stadiums. And ever since I have started watching football, I have never witnessed any issue related to alcohol during the matches. In western nations, people know how to behave themselves after taking alcohol. And in the third world nations, there is a blanket ban on such beverages. Anyway, I am of the opinion that the authorities should not tell to ordinary people what they should eat or drink. Whether or not to consume alcohol should be a decision to be made by the fans themselves.

Never understood the pleasure of drinking beer in a stadium. As you know, it is processed very quickly and you have to run to the toilet (which is usually full) during the game. It is absolutely inconvenient and unfun in my opinion.
By the way, about the fact that beer is considered a "light" alcoholic drink, I also have a big misunderstanding - with a sufficient amount of alcohol drunk, it causes no less intoxicating effect than other drinks.
But in general, I agree that as long as a person does not interfere with others, he himself has the right to decide what to drink and eat.

Some people like to drink beer and some other people don't like it but the whole point of this story is about the rules and freedom because if a country is hosting the world cup they should give enough freedom to people who came to this country for watching the world cup games and since drinking alcoholic drinks is something many people do, I was expecting to see Qatar allows that, but I'm sure in 2026 that's not forbidden in America.
Do you all think that the FIFA authorities can organize the next World Cup like the World Cup in Qatar? In fact, although the FIFA authorities have made a great contribution to organizing this World Cup, the country where it will be hosted needs the most craftsmanship. From that point of view, I don't think any other country like Qatar can spend so much money on football world cup.

I am sure that the answer is yes and that soon, maybe already in 7 years, we could see that the world championship is organized by an even richer country than Qatar.
In fact, this is not an assumption but a very real possibility because Saudi Arabia has already expressed its interest in organizing the 2030 World Cup.
It seems that in the future, rich Arab countries may perceive the organization of the world football cups as a matter of prestige and great international promotion, just as it is now a matter of prestige for them to buy English clubs.  Grin
Football today is more than ever linked to profit.
