Using the case of the new stadiums for the FIFA World Cup 2006 in Germany, this paper is the first multivariate work that examines the potential income and employment effects of new stadiums outside of the USA. This study is also the first work on this topic that conducts tests on the basis of a (serial correlation consistent) Difference-in-Difference model with level and trends. As a robustness check, we use the "ignoring time series information" model in a form that is modified for non-synchronous interventions. We were not able to identify income or employment effects of the construction of new stadiums for the FIFA World Cup 2006, which are significantly different from zero.

Soccer books by American writers are rare. Those covering the 2006 World Cup are rarer still. So give credit to Jamie Trecker's roller-coaster book, "Love and Blood: At the World Cup with the Footballers, Fans and Freaks" (Harcourt Books), and local writer Tony Limarzi, for his slim volume "Forza Italia: The Italian Triumph in the 2006 World Cup" (Publish America). Trecker's colorful title warns readers that this is no ordinary book on soccer. It borders on the sensational but is an indulgent read. From his Munich apartment, Trecker saw the seamy and outrageous side of soccer's biggest party.
