New Stadium for Falcons

At a surprise press conference this morning, the Atlas Group executives responsible for the management of the Karachi Falcons announced that the Falcons would move into their new stadium on Opening Day, April 3rd.  The new stadium was originally not scheduled to be ready until next season.  Since the conglomerate Atlas Group was itself doing the construction work, it was able to significantly accelerate the process.

The new stadium will be named Muhammad Ali Jinnah Stadium in honor of Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan.  It will feature a real grass field and a retractable roof.  Fans will especially appreciate the comfortable new seats and the wide range of amenities available during games.

The team will unveil the field to fans on Fan Appreciation Day, April 2nd, one day before Opening Day.  The entire team, including newcomers Toshikuni Hashimoto and Fernando Cuevas, will be on hand to meet fans and sign autographs.  In a special treat for fans on that day, the Green Shirts, Pakistan’s national cricket team, will also be on hand to meet and greet Falcon boosters.  Season ticket holders will be allowed to enter the stadium at noon; all fans are welcome at 13:30.

On April 3rd the Falcons will inaugurate Ali Jinnah Stadium as they face the Rome Generals who recently relocated from Lagos, Nigeria to the City of the Seven Hills.  The first pitch will be thrown out by popular singer and actor, Tariq Aslam, great grandson of the legendary 21st century singer and actor, Atiuf Aslam.

So, cricket remains popular in the next century. No shock there.

Mr. Aslam, I assume, is either in remarkable health to have survived to 2105, or otherwise is a musical cyborg.

Speaking of stadiums --- I mean stadia, to use the correct plural form of the word ...

I'd like to rename my team's stadium.  Instead of calling it Fox Stadium, let's call it The Den.
