that reminds me.
did anyone see a few weeks ago that fifa are not letting bolivia (may be another s. american country) play any more games at their national stadium. this is because of the altitude.
seems strange to me that they will let games go ahead stupid temperatures and humidity in the far east and africa, as well as extremely low temperatures of scandanavia etc.
surely these pose similar health problems.

84,000 capacity, should be enough tickets to go round.
