The Berlin Wall went down in history and gained worldwide fame as a symbol of what became known as the Cold War. Who would have thought that this post would be enough to talk about. In fact, it is a support pillar for the roof of the Olympic Stadium in the German capital. And it gained fame in the last few hours thanks to a post on social media by a young Polish fan. Daniel, that’s the boy’s name, bought a ticket to watch his country’s national team play against Austria, which took place last Friday. And, surprise of all surprises, when he walked to his place to sit down, he came across a pillar in front of him that almost completely blocked the view of the playing field.
In addition, the Olympic Stadium in Berlin will host the European Championship finals. And there are a good two dozen such pillars in the enclosure that serve as supports for the roof. In other words, there are many more places like what you see in the photo.
The facility was built before the outbreak of World War II, between 1934 and 1936. The 1936 Olympic Games were held here. World Cup games have already been held here in 1974 and 2006, and the capacity is 70 thousand spectators. Not everything overlooks the lawn…
The complaint soon reached social network X: “60 euros for this place.” And, unfortunately for Daniel, his Poland lost 3:1 and was eliminated from the race for reaching the 1/8 finals. The reaction to the publication was not long in coming. Most of them had a sense of humor, and even a compatriot commented: “So you didn’t have to see what a disgrace our team was.”
