The normal British way of traveling is to spend 75 euros to fly to some other European country on Ryanair, find a pub that is exactly like the one they go to at home, drink exactly the same way they do at home (into a stupor and getting into fights) then fly back. That's what they are used to.

The normal American way of travelling is to spend 9 hours driving to a town within the same state, find whichever motel looks least likely to get shot up in a drive-by, eat exactly the same way they do at home (chain burger restaurants) then drive back. That's what they are used to.

Europeans think they are the individually as a person the protagonist of the world entitled to everything and it is the funniest shit ever, then project it on others. They think they are good vs everyone else being evil.

the scariest thing is not only will americans pay it, they'll actively defend it, as if anyone suggesting the prices are too high is an insult to their country as a whole.

they'll go into some larp mode how they're rich and that 5k is nothing despite it being the average monthly wage there whilst also having the highest homeless population in the world

really werid country and people
>>
>>152472064
A small amount of people will go to a game out of novelty and just pay it as the price of access. Most people aren't going to a game or even will know it is going on.

Average people are not spending $4200 for a ticket to the final.
>>
>>152472064
Attending the World Cup is not your right as a human, sorry Nigel.
>>
The saddest thing about what has happened to the cost of sports is that nothin will change until fans make the change happen, and no one ever will. Complain all you want. Until stadiums are half or less filled for every sport and TV ratings crater, no changes will ever be made. The athletes will get richer and richer while the fans are the ones expected to fund their lifestyles with our increasingly poorer lifestyles. The only sport I watch now is NFL, but you can be damn sure I don’t watch it live to be bombarded with commercials. I pirate the condensed versions of games on Monday and don’t watch a single ad. I’ll never pay to watch a game in person. I’ll never pay for team attire from their store. I’ll never contribute to TV ratings.

Lmao true. I live in a city the matches are taking place in and I couldn't give a shit less. Maybe if team USA were playing and someone offered me free tickets. Otherwise I'd rather go fishing something.

europoors actually think normal people are supposed to be able to attend these games lmao
the stadiums will be half empty and the half that are there will be celebrities or corporate drones from all the sponsors
you're just gonna have to watch on TV back in your dingy little village, sorry. hope you enjoy the 3 minute commercial break each half :)

And so what? Now they can go to a pub, pay a few quid for a pint or two and watch the match on a big television instead while the crowd is a mix of wealthy regulars and people going to one or two matches a year.

MLS is still cheap.

I don't know why Euros expect the World Cup to be cheap. I think this is a real difference in worldview. Also Americans are much richer and make way more money than Euros. I can understand sticker shock. The NFL is super expensive but has a huge contingent of working class fans as anyone who has been to a game can see.

>>152474185
Why are turds so obsessed with trucks?
Trains are urban transport. Watching pro sports at a stadium is a primarily urban thing. There are a few stadia built in rural countrysides, sure. But the vast majority of them are built in large cities with limited parking and cohesive regional transit networks.
Trains are nice, you can get wasted after work and not worry about getting home, you can play dumb games on your phone or read instead of focusing on not hitting the car in front of you also it never costs me much more than 120 bucks a month to do all my commuting an extra 80-100 or so if I want to visit family 160 miles away, with a car that barely scrapes the insurance payment

cant decide how i feel about the high prices.
im a little upset that even the worst games are more than im willing to pay
but the high prices means the resale ticket jews will get a lot less money. and only foriegners are going to waste their money on it and a lot of the money will stay in the US, so overall its probably a good thing.

Good luck with that. London to Dallas is already $850 ONE WAY. To say nothing of the flights he needs to the other cities.
Reminder to Europoors that no, you will not enjoy driving from Texas to Boston.
That's over 26 hours of nonstop driving, assuming absolutely no traffic.
>$200 spending money per day for a family of 5
That will barely cover one meal at a nice restaurant after tax and yes, tip.
>$75 travel to each game
If he just means an uber from his hotel to the stadium, for 5 people on a high demand day it'll probably be $100 each way.

He's probably underestimating the cost by at least 100%

Assuming they all get $20 per day to tip the doorman, that's another $20 to buy a stadium hot dog each. And good is.
tbf, it's the $35,000 in ticket prices alone which appears the part he's really complaining about here, not unrighteously. And that's assuming he can score 5 for every round at current FIFA base price, which I'd guess is way optimistic.

I am aware of the whole Americans presenting themselves as protagonists of the world meme. I think those people retarded kek
Euros do not have self awareness to think they are doing it or project on Americans their own flaws, and will never accept responsibility for themselves or their flaws and unrealistic entitlements. That will make the depression and war on their continent far worse for them.

And before you hyperfocus on one thing to avoid actually replying because I mistyped

The whole idea of a World Cup (all countries travel to one country to play all games) is counterintuitive to having a great atmosphere. The World Cup by its structure is not meant to
If they wanted a great atmosphere they would have a home/away format

They 'can't afford america' as thieving FIFA cunts are Final Boss'ing them on ticket prices before they even had a chance to get ripped off by your fellow countrymen. 5x Qatar price (and rising) from a shower of whores already rolling in a mountain of WC TV Gold - there is zero justification for this, none.
>>
>>152475992
The World Cup was always travelled to by national team supporters, until they started with bs like Qatar and USA!USA! outmastering Ticketfuckingmaster. I'd agree they don't give a shit about having a good atmosphere tho, otherwise they'd hold it in a proper football country, one where fans aren't being nickel and dimed to death.

Yes, when things are underpriced the "price" shifts to something else. In this case it's the time and dedication. I'd rather that these tickets be distributed to dedicated fans than just some random rich influencers, celebrities, or trust fund kids that will just be on their phone the entire game.

There's people who want to make football into business -and a lot of them are American- but they are mistaken. Your silly yank takes apply to your silly yank sports.
>>
>>152480881
They're trying to sell a business that makes too much money? Is this what you told yourself thinking we'd believe it as you were making this shit up Muhammad? You are a customer retard. These people pay a lot of money to have the right to run a business. You can tell yourself whatever fairy tale bullshit you want

>"It's a club and I'm a member!"

but at the end of the day they are selling you a good/service and you exchange money. That means you are not only a customer but you are helping fund a corporation that doesn't give a shit about you. Even these national teams are just entertainment corporations like Disney or Netflix
>>
Wait are bongs really too retarded to see that these foreign owners are just using these teams to money launder?
>>
>>152481031
>They're trying to sell a business that makes too much money?
No the opposite. Hence the green text, you imbecile.
>"It's a club and I'm a member!"
Not in England. That's a continental thing. You have no clue what you're on about
>at the end of the day they are selling you a good/service and you exchange money
Most of the value in football is non-financial. It's emotional and social. People genuinely love the sport and the culture around it. Which is why there are very rich people who are happy to lose money running football clubs. That ethos is alien to Americans and business people and they're trying to alter the situation with PSR and FFP etc, but it'll fail long term because of the nature of the sport.

NTA but it's common knowledge that these clubs were built by the fans hundreds of years ago and stolen by the rich barons that effectively render them useless in the name of their own greed.
I absolutely get the plight, wouldn't expect you to understand it because you don't know what it's like. These sports owners ain't your friends. They're built on trusts that disenfranchise working people like you and me. Sherman Anitrust Act anyone? Does it exist anymore?

That's not an answer. You don't have an answer. Because you were talking nonsense.
These people run countries. If they needed to do financial shenanigans they'd do it in house
Why would Arabs need to "launder" money they got selling oil anyway?
They waste money on football because they want prestige, status, a reputation buff.
They also unironically love the game.
For all their faults, Arabs are a chivalrous lot. They have a more developed sense of honour (and mayhem because of that, a better sense of humour) than Americans, in the main.

Thanks again for proving you have no clue about the world around you. These clubs are used to money launder to hide whatever else needs to be hid for whoever else. You think Roman (((Abrahomovic))) was squeaky clean? Retard.

What a lot of fucking waffle.
Your sports are shit and nobody cares about them and that annoys you, I get it.
You've slid from Arabs to Abramovich -and from saying "nobody runs clubs as a charity" to "yeah they run them at a loss to "wash" their money"
Maybe Marinakis is doing that, that's a possibility. Roman wasn't (if he was the criminals in our government who robbed him of his club would have made a huge splash about it at the time of the takeover). The Abu Dhabi Group and the Saudi PIF definitely aren't. You're handwaving shite
