As the holiday season nears, many questions may arise like what side dish are you making for thanksgiving dinner? What Christmas movie are we watching? Or if you find yourself to be a sports fan: Am I watching basketball or football? Well, this year you can add another sport to the watchlist. For the first time ever, the FIFA Men’s World Cup will begin Nov. 20 and end Dec. 18, meaning this year’s Thanksgiving and Christmas parties could look a little different.
The reason for a third holiday sport? Well, the soccer tournament will be held in Qatar, a place known for reaching temperatures of up to 122 degrees in the summer.
