South Korea Poses New Method of Dealing With Empty Stadiums

Covid-19 has really made the past two weeks quite gruesome for most sports fans. The thought of our major leagues coming back and playing in empty stadiums is truly baffling and hard to believe. None of us ever have had to deal with something so strange and eerie before, until now.

As I stated yesterday in the blog, sports are coming back, slowly. The German Bundesliga resumed play this weekend, and many leagues look to be not far behind. It is being tossed around by Joe Buck that Fox is most likely going to be pumping in sound to television broadcasts to make watching these empty 80,000 person structures somewhat more bearable.

A soccer team in South Korea has come up with something even better! Filling the arenas up with sex dolls. Yes, you read that right. On Sunday, FC Seoul scattered what they thought to be mannequins around the stadium holding signs of support for their club. Despite "checking" several times to ensure the dolls were used for modeling only, the club was mistaken and scattered the adult sex dolls throughout their seating.

I'll be the first one to say playing in an empty stadium sucks, for all of us. But even if these dolls were normal mannequins, is it not one bit creepy to have hundreds of dolls watching you play a soccer game?

The fact that they were indeed sex dolls, makes this a smidgen worse. I can imagine this predicament in America right now. Tiger Woods on the back nine of Pebble Beach with just an array of Joslyn James dolls scattered down the fairway. Seems perfectly normal.

In reality, plenty of good things have come out of South Korea. Instant noodles, the first MP3 player, even refrigeration. But it is hard to tell if this one is going to stick. The club has already issued an apology to their fans about the incident and looks to move on quickly. Sex dolls might not be the move, but lets cheers to being on this rocky road of sports coming back together!
