No way, no how do I plan to be in Geneva during June when Foot 2008 is going on. As a non sports fan who isn't sure whether its soccer or rugby being played, I do know the crowds it will bring will be great for the economy and a nightmare for residents
Basel and Bern are other Foot cities. Already the souvenir shops are going crazy, the floor of the train station has been painted, they are talking about rickshaws to help with transportation.
In Basel one café has to take in their sidewalk tables because they don't sell the official biere of the tournament.
The ball will be suspended above the jette d'eau until the end of June. Last night it was resting on the water looking like one of the old balloons from the 60 series, The Prisoner. Yup, I'm getting out of Dodge.
