The newly built Karl Franz Arena is the pride of Hochland, even rivaling the Altdorf Oldbowl according to some journalists. A modern stadium, the Karl Franz includes all type of amenities such as McMurty stands, heated seats and electrified wiring over the stadium to add a skill component to the Chuck (*). It is the home ground of the Hochland Hailers and its rabid fans, always ready to injure, dismember or kill opposing players that fall outside of the gridiron… Or their own if they see their commitment to the team is not as high as expected!
The stadium has a catering range of services for all type of needs, including, among others: Goblin bookies, hair stylists for elf fans, pools of fresh blood for chaos fans, a “make your own hot dog” corner for halfling fans and a “make your own halfling” corner for minotaur fans (incidentally, the same corner due to space restrictions).
We are looking forward to seeing you there for the next Hailers match!
The lack of dried blood indicates this picture was taken before the match.
