As much as I enjoy a few beers with any sporting event, I don't see any chance of the World Cup here being anything like previous ones in terms of alcohol.
The simple fact is that Qatar doesn't care about the money. This world cup will cost a fortune to host without any promise of financial return, and those in charge don't care. So however much groups and companies might complain, it won't make a bit of difference. The fact that it will be hosted on a rock in the Persian Gulf in the middle of the searing heat of summer should tell you everything in terms of how much fans are being considered by anyone.
