Thanks for sharing this post mate as well as the link pertaining what's the do's and don'ts in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

I already heard some of the prohibitions made by their government and that they are very strict especially when it comes to the use of alchohol and drugs as that contradicts the beliefs and traditions of Saudi Araba as they are a Muslim country in the first place. Didn't shocked me though when I read the link you've shared but it just confirmed what I've heard that it is actually banned.

Well, what can I say, but good luck to those participants and fans who will watch the 2030 World Cup if KSA-Greece-Egypt will win the bid. Hopefully it's their competitor who will win the bid namely Portugal-Spain-Morroco as these country is far more free and lively from the first option and their national team is quite competitive as well, so they literally deserve to host the 2030 event.
I am a religious person but I am not a fanatic. I don't believe that other people's religions are inferior, hence I respect their beliefs and views. Any country that wants to host the world cup should be willing to respect the religious beliefs of others. The World Cup is a global competition and attracts people from different lands and religions. If they are not willing to give the fans the freedom to enjoy the competition then FIFA shouldn't give the hosting rights. As long as the behavior of fans doesn't cause any harm to the country or others, they should be allowed to freely enjoy themselves. 

If KSA-Greece-Egypt wins the bid, football fans will definitely prefer to go to Greece and Egypt except for fans that their countries will be playing in Saudi Arabia. I also support the bid of Portugal-Spain-Morroco because it will be more freer and entertaining. All the hosts are strong football nations and they don't have strong religious connections with the economicc, social, and political segments.
