FIFA is once again raising prices for a substantial number of games in the upcoming World Cup tournament that will be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico in June and July.
Is anyone actually going to pay for these tickets?
Although I guess to the 1% its just chump change.
I think the insane price tag is part of the appeal. Want to flex on the junior partners at the firm? Tell them you took your family to the WC finals. They know how much it costs. It’s the same reason $10k cufflinks exist: they’re symbols of how much money you can afford to waste.
It’s sickening that people who could do so much good for society, or even their local communities wasted so much
Yes, it’s the World Cup Final. Great way to impress the clients.
I am always amazed at the amount of money that people waste on sports.
Hey, the FIFA peace prize was expensive to create.
Imagine a world cup final with a ton of empty seats? Would be awesome to see. Ofc they will give away seats for free before that happens but still
I don’t think they actually will tbh
ICC cricket world cups are notorious for empty seats because they do the same thing where they only sell “premium” seats for ridiculous prices and pretend that the regular seats are sold out.
They’ll probably open up tickets a couple of days before the match because they know last minute people will still buy
Nice! It was less but now I won’t expend $11,000 in a ticket… that I won’t buy even if it was free.
By not going, I was only saving $7000 a ticket when they first went on sale, but now I’m saving $11k! By Grabthar’s hammer, what a savings!
I just saved 740 million by not buying that private island off the coast of Curaçao.
I don’t think we are the target demographic.
Really?🤯
To no consequence of sane people outside of the US, right?
They will sell the tickets twice, once to people from outside the US who will be detained at the port of entry, mistreated and then deported AND once to people inside the US.
ICE will also be at the USian games for extra chances to do their performative cruelty (all of this is literally virtue signaling). And Americans love it. They got exactly what they wanted
Good! Please boycott all games in NJ!
Hahahahahaha
It’s not too crazy. As time is passing, the schedule will be more certain. For instance, before yesterday, very few Bulgarians would’ve been willling to buy a ticket. Now there are more who would want one. Demand goes up, price goes up. That’s how capitalism works.
