PATHETIC

Yes, Rio De Janeiro is quite pathetic.
It's the Olympic Winter Games (OWG) NOT "Winter Olympic Games' (WOG <----- NO NO NO!)

Mo I liked the project you've made, it seems to be really possible.

But I prefer the roof. Sorry. Posted Image

GBForums have been boring lately... Miss the good discussions and points. The nice follow-ups on buildings and so on...
Now we have only chat with trolls or weeks without the old good boys posting...
So I'm giving a break, but I'll be back soon. Meanwhile I'll be around in SkyScrapercity, where no trolling and city vs. city is allowed.

Yes, for the 2014 World Cup, FIFA doesn't allow a city to have two stadiums.


If yes, Rio would have two stadiums for be used in the World Cup.
Engenhao only needs more seats, because the stadium is already under FIFA requirements, according to local media.

Indeed, the stadium was projected to be used in World Cup and Olympics if Rio would wins.
Engenhao was selected as one of top ten stadiums in the world, since is the only with a official training path not far than 50m from the official competitions one. Posted Image

thats silly of FIFA. They would rather host in a less capable city than host 2 match venues in Rio.

oh wait, Qatar gets to host all 10 venues in one city.

They classify suburbs close to each other than Deodoro and Barra as "host cities"

Mo, you know me, If I could I would make an entire World Cup inside Rio! LOL

But for Brazil, FIFA didn't allowed it.
