Wow! In Canada we have lost all reentry privileges. Leave the stadium? You’re done watching the game from within the stadium.

It started before the pandemic, during Pan Am Games team sports. Now it’s here to stay in every stadium.

So each sports stadium has a captive audience to which they can try to sell all necessary calories and hydration to. Oh and no outside food / drink is allowed unless it’s for a baby. They confiscate it all during the security search upon entry.

Regardless, if they're going to use "local" units they should make it clear what these are. Adding a key explaining that 1 lakh = 100,000 is all that's required. I appreciate this particular graph was probably produced for domestic use only, but the WWW means that once online, data can travel around the world.

Eating the pain away has always been Spurs fans main outlet for dealing with the fact that they never win any silverware. Congrats to Harry Kane- 267 goals and zero trophies. "Tottenham get battered everywhere they go" this makes so much more sense now, like battered fish.

Think of it like this... If a pipeline runs to an east coast port to fill up ships to export to Europe, and another pipeline is set up in Los Angeles to distribute product from the Persian Gulf to gas stations, it's easier to keep doing that than to send a super tanker that doesn't fit through the Panama Canal from that east coast port, around South America, to get it to the port of LA. That's just a hypothetical example, but most of our petro infrastructure was developed before we discovered fracking and started producing enough to cover our needs, and it's expensive to redo everything.
