    If you happen to be one of the few that enjoy a life above average, of course it won't matter. Hey, lets get a couple of tickets and go see some of the games at the new stadium.

    And then, you could say, well, tourism will bring the locals revenue and all that, but these organizations have a big team of lawyers and they copyright everything, so locals don't really make much more than the usual day. If you want to sell anything with the world cup logo, you are going to have to pay to fifa for that too. I mean yeah, I don't care for sports and I'm sure I would still watch a couple of games here and there if my country gets far enough to be interesting.

    But you have to be able to see it from the side of the locals too. Police moving you out of the way because you are not part of the the 'pretty image' that the tv wants to show. And you are being forced out of your own home at gun point... come on man.. that has to suck no matter what side you are on.
