City prepares for prostitutes

BERLIN -- A German city is rushing to install a series of drive-in wooden "sex garages" in time for next year's Soccer World Cup and an expected boom in the local sex trade, a city official said on Wednesday. Dortmund, one of 12 cities to host World Cup matches, is anxious to keep prostitutes and their clients off the streets by providing them with discreet places to do business. Experts estimate as many as 40,000 prostitutes may travel to Germany to offer their services to fans during the tournament. "The World Cup has put us under added time pressure, as we don't want a situation where prostitutes and their clients disturb residential areas," the official said. Prostitution is legal in Germany in designated areas. "In Dortmund we have an official red light district on the outskirts, but there is a problem. There is not enough space for everyone to park." Dortmund plans to arrange the Dutch-designed huts, which have been introduced in the city of Cologne, another World Cup venue, in an area with condom machines and snack bar. "Men have to get used to them of course, but a high percentage accept them because they can protect their anonymity," the official said. "That said there will always be those who want to go behind a bush, under a bridge or into the woods."

I'm a big Germany guy...always have been.

drive-in wooden "sex garages"

How would you like to be the architect that gets to draw these up.

And how would you like to explain your research to your wife?

Did they fix the beer problem?
I recall hearing at one point that because of an agreement between FIFA and Anheuser-Bush that they'd have to sell Bud products, and only Bud products, inside the stadiums for the WC. What the hell is the point of drinking that swill when you're in Germany where they know how to brew decent beer?

Beer problem?

Can Europe please put the EU crap on the back burner and solve the BEER PROBLEM!

That is outstanding.

This had to be the pitch that closed the deal when FIFA was awarding the cup site years ago.

If the Bud over there tastes the same as the Bud over here, then there will be rioting in the stadiums.

I have a feeling that 90% of those guys are so far into the bag by the time they enter the stadium that they don't care what they are drinking.

For once soccer has me intrigued.

For once soccer has me intrigued.

... and it only took 40,000 European prostitutes.
