The Corsican French Cup Stadium Disaster of 1992 | Episode 110

No one shows up to work expecting to make history, but today’s story shows how one small, irreversible decision created the one of the worst days at work in US History. If that “fork in the road” moment had played out in any other way, today’s episode would mostly just be me chatting up Texans and offering up some gardening tips.On today’s episode: we will be travelling to beautiful Corsica, and learning why people not from there think the locals are xenophobic, blood thirsty monsters; we’ll learn how when it comes to architecture and building quality, you can have things done cheap and fast but not safe; and you will hear the term “bleediest” used as an adjectiveAnd if you had been listening on Patreon… you would learn about a few of the most debilitating, teeth-spitting, femur shattering moments in the history of European football; you would learn the mostly tragic tale of the most famous head butt in history; you would learn the unexpectedly crazy history of soccer’s favourite shoe brand; and we would discuss the kinds of things your brain can’t unsee, including the worst thing I’ve ever seen in my life, which just happened last week.We’re back, and things are beginning to return to normal. Thank you for your support and patience. On that note, as you will notice right off the top, I've been quietly developing an unusual game idea based on an awkward conversation with a dog which is getting rave reviews from testers. It’s an odd game, based on an odd story, which you can learn all about on Kickstarter. It is my pleasure to introduce PEE PEE POO POO: The Game of Laughter, Smiles and Farts.CLICK HERE TO SEE IT WITH YOUR OWN EYESIt’s been a passion project, bringing this to life, and with your help, its success means NO MORE DELAYED DOOMSDAY EPISODES.I know it can feel weird to share. I made the game, and I still have trouble saying the name without having a reaction. But for an independent project like this to blow up, word-of-mouth is everything. Every share and mention genuinely helps more than you could imagine. Heading to our page and signing up to be notified when it starts (even if you’re not interested) helps just as much.WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?During the First THREE DAYS, as a listener of the show:you get a copy of PEE PEE POO POO for $7 off (that’s a 20% savings)you will be thrown into a draw for a chance to win three Free Doomsday T-Shirts you could also win one of three PEE PEE POO POO V.I.POO Tiers (a copy of the game, one of our T-Shirts, a paw-tographed framed photo of Eve, and a Limited Edition Golden Turd Card!Spread the word, save the show, share the poo! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nachosharkgames/pee-pee-poo-pooBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/doomsday-history-s-most-dangerous-podcast--4866335/support.
