Big "Ooops!" Qatar waited until the last moment to ban alcohol sales at their stadiums. FIFA is agog, because Budweiser is one of their major sponsors.

To make matters worse,
Quote:
The ban on alcohol consumption seemed to apply only to fans attending games. Beer and other drinks, including an official FIFA Champagne and an array of sommelier-selected wines, will still be available in stadium luxury suites reserved for FIFA officials and other wealthy guests.
Imagine that going down with the bleacher creatures? "Hey, get yer near-beer here! Near-beer here!" [Ducks things thrown at him.]
