Where's the
best place to go for a drink before the game? Which are the five best pubs
near the ground?
Dieter: On the second tier of the north stand
there's a big bar with room for 1,500 to 2,000 people. Otherwise, there
are lots of pubs between the railway station and the city centre (about 1km from
the ground).
Which are the best pubs in the city centre for meeting
other fans and chatting about football?
Dieter: There are lots of pubs around a large
square in the old town area.
Where do fans meet to
celebrate after a win?
Dieter: Around the stadium, and in the pubs around
the square mentioned above.
Where do
fans meet after a defeat?
Dieter: See above
Where's a
cheap place to stay overnight?
Dieter: In the youth hostels or inns around
Kaiserslautern. If you don't mind driving a bit further out of town, our
fan club here in Gauersheim will help you find somewhere (betzihart@gmx.de).
Other than
your own, which do you rate as the three best World Cup grounds in
Germany?
Dieter:
Berlin, Munich, Gelsenkirchen
What tips
have you got for the best things to eat and drink at
half-time?
Dieter: There are lots of tasty snacks for sale
(bratwurst, rissoles, 'Saumagen' [literally 'sow's stomach',
it's a local speciality!! - Ed.], pizza etc.), alcohol-free beer, wine and other
drinks.
Apart from football, what else is there
interesting to see or do in the area?
Dieter: The Donnersberg (687m),
the Deutsche Weinstrasse (German Wine Road), the
Pfälzer Wald (Palatinate Forest), the Dinosaur
Park, Holiday Park, 2 breweries and lots more
besides.
