I feel like that shit floods every time it rains lol. I'm curious how they would drain it.

Just drill drain holes in the bottom. Duh! Oh wait...

Congratulations on being the smartest person in this thread so far, no one else has apparently ever heard of a pump before

how they would drain it.

Since a lot of land is below sea level, the Netherlands basically dry pump their country all the time anyway.
