A World Cup venue

British tabloids have reported – although, as far as I know, FIFA hasn’t confirmed – that the 2026 World Cup final will be played in Arlington, Texas.

Well, why not. A bloated stadium to cap off a bloated World Cup.

“Is Arlington, Texas, the largest city in the US without mass public transit?

“Yes. …

“Voters have rejected proposals to create public transit three times since 1980.”

Too bad. I guess I’ll have to ride an Uber to the game.
