One bad thing about being the King of Nepal

"Nepal's King Gyanendra has come under attack from a stone-throwing crowd as he travelled in a motorcade.

The monarch, who was on his way to a pilgrimage site in Kathmandu to attend a Hindu festival, escaped unhurt.

King Gyanendra was on his way to the Pashupati temple in the capital for the Maha Shivratri festival when crowds chanting anti-monarchy slogans pelted his motorcade with stones. " (BBC)

He probably never gets to hob-nob pro soccer players either.
