      **Data source:** 2026 FIFA World Cup group-stage schedule

      – FIFA tournament / schedule hub: https://www.fifa.com/en/tournaments/mens/worldcup/canadamexicousa2026
      – Fixture cross-check reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_FIFA_World_Cup

      **Tools used:** Python, pandas, Pillow

      **Method:** For each group-stage match, I converted kickoff time into each team’s fan-local time and modeled the viewing window as kickoff through kickoff + 120 minutes.

      Sleep Tax points are weighted minutes / 60:

      – 22:00-00:00: 1.0x
      – 00:00-02:00: 2.0x
      – 02:00-06:00: 3.0x
      – 06:00-08:00: 1.5x
      – 08:00-22:00: 0.0x

      Example: a 23:00-01:00 local viewing window scores 3.0 points: 60 minutes at 1.0x and 60 minutes at 2.0x.

      Algeria getting fucked. There’s a possibility they don’t get out of the group. So if you want to watch them at all in a WC the earliest you have to wake up is 02:00. Sucks balls

      I guess it also depends on at what time do people go to sleep. Because here 23:00 is quite reasonably early. But it looks like a match at 21:00 is disruptive in the USA for example

      Many countries are spread across multiple time zones and you are assuming every region have the same sleeping patterns.

      I would argue that a 22:00 is more taxing than a 05:00. A 22:00 game will go past midnight whereas I get up at 05:00 most mornings anyway!

      It’s dumb that the last US game starts so late on a Thursday, the game tonight should have been 10pm and that one 9pm.

      after living here for 5 years, and getting to know the Dutch culture, I can confirm that the 0100 game is very much a cause for excitement lol people will be going wild that day

      Am I reading this correctly? It says Australia’s start times are 7am, 3pm, 11pm. Our start times (on the east coast – most populated time zone) are 2pm, 5am, 12pm.
