they spent 200 billion on the brand new stadiums for the world cup in Qatar , and they all are amazing feats of architecture !!

believe it or not the guys in the World Cup thread could care less about these posts i am making about the stadiums, you think they would but no , so that is why i am putting them here in the cornfield..

when Russia had the last World Cup in 2018 , they spent 14 billion on their new stadiums , the 200 billion that Qatar spent is more than all the money spent on all the world cup venues combined

magnificent

the above stadiums are brand new but this one, which is being used was already built, it is still magnificent !

 

Khalifa International Stadium | Capacity: 40,000 seats | Opening: 1976

a remarkable masterpiece

 

Doha

Education City Stadium | Capacity: 40,000 seats | Opening: 2020

 

[1950's war comics]

the inside of the stadiums look pretty much the same but from the outside they are unbelievable feats of architecture !

 

Doha

Stadium 974 | Capacity: 40,000 seats | Opening: 2021

[1950's war comics]

the reason the stadiums cost so much is because even in November it is still VERY hot in Qatar , normally the World Cup is played every four year in July , but when Qatar was awarded the Cup the moved it November so it wouldn't be quite ar hot 

all Stadiums had to have air conditioning installed at an enormous expense, i'm not sue how they actually accomplished putting air conditioning into an open roof stadium ,

as a kid at home my bother and i had a rule , one person splits the pie (or cake) and the other person gets to pick his piece , 

but i was older and was able to cut the cake to appear as if one piece was actually bigger than the other when it was not (by tapering down with the slice) i always tricked my brother into taking the smaller piece , i feel bad now 50 years later

Those stadiums are beautiful, it's just disgraceful that so many workers had to die to make them.
