The tale of one intrepid U.S. supporter’s sleight of hand to defy Qatar’s ban on alcohol at its stadiums.
DOHA, Qatar — Here, at perhaps the most singular World Cup in soccer history, a hero walked among the masses. When not traveling the world, or hiking, kayaking, snowboarding, mountain biking or backpacking, this hero holds a normal job. He lives in the U.S., with his wife and their dog, a mutt with black lab vibes.
None of that relates to his heroism, except tangentially, because his spirit, hobbies and adventures long ago shaped a daring, try-anything soul.
