Kelly Crow takes on Art Basel 39 and Football Hooligans in the WSJ

Don’t miss the Wall Street Journal’s Basel preview with this warning:

At least 55,000 people are expected to attend the weeklong Art Basel, and an additional 160,000 will turn up midweek to prepare for the Euro Cup’s Saturday opening match between the national teams of Switzerland and the Czech Republic at Basel’s soccer stadium. Nearly all these out-of-towners are vying for the local area’s 5,400 hotel rooms, not to mention tables at the city’s top restaurants and hangouts.
