✅ True. Budweiser tweeted, then deleted, a post stating, 'Well, this is awkward...' after an announcement that alcohol wouldn't be sold at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
As former NBC News journalist Bill Neely stated in his tweet above, the tweet from Budweiser appeared to be in response to aabout an abrupt decision to ban alcohol sales at the 2022 World Cup, to be held in late November and December 2022 in Qatar, a tiny, wealthy Gulf nation.
The decision to move the beer stations appeared to be rooted in concern that the prominent presence of alcohol at stadiums during the monthlong World Cup would unsettle the local population and thus represent a potential security problem. But it also highlighted an issue that has stalked the buildup to the first World Cup in the Arab world, and that is expected to be contentious throughout the tournament in Qatar, a conservative Muslim country where access to alcohol is tightly controlled.
