Korean Team Apologizes for Putting Sex Dolls in Stands
Published:
The Korean soccer league is back in business, along with the baseball league, which has been playing on ESPN for a few weeks now.
No supporters in the stands, per standard COVID-19 protocol, but in an effort to be creative we had an FC Seoul snafu, with sex dolls appearing in the seats instead:

Pretty good. Of course something like this was gonna happen.
In addition, some mannequins held signs offering messages of support to players and the team that seemed to reference adult content streaming sites.
Seoul said there had been a misunderstanding with the supplier, and it had been told the dolls were not for adult use.
“We would like to apologise to the fans,” the club said in a statement released on social media.
“We are very sorry about the supporting mannequins that were placed during the game on May 17. These mannequins may have been made to look and feel like real humans but they are not for sexual use — as confirmed by the manufacturer from the beginning.”
Sounds like a developing story here. We’ll keep abreast of the situation and update if necessary.
