Don’t like the rules, don’t go.
What a concept!
Yep, their country, their laws. I wouldn’t walk across the street to see a World Cup soccer game for free, and I wouldn’t go to Qatar at all. And if I did go there, if for instance someone would pay me a billion dollars or so for a three-day visit, I’d just white-knuckle it for the duration.
My understanding is Qatar initially agreed to permit alcohol sales on the stadium grounds, but just now changed its mind. They changed the rules after everyone bought tickets.
