I saw this on a link. It was a very funny glitch to even have the prices were free but under the guise of minus prices (i.e -$1200). And it was only for games that are hosted by Canadian cities.

FIFA is gonna eventually make the lower the tickets cost to double digits eventually like what they did in the club world cup

absolute clown show of a world cup

Im 100% convinced the americans bribed every fifa official to get the world cup to sabotage it on purpose to destroy whats left of the sport so it never again threatens american sports or their corporate hegemony over there.
>>
>>155012703
America hosting the world cup and generating millions of billions or something was just part of Trump's election campaign, I think he got it and just kind of forgot about it which explains the bad organization. now FIFA are under pressure to at least get close to the promised figures which explains all the other nonsense like tickets.
>>
>>155012811
I think they underestimated the bad feeling towards USA across a lot of the world at the moment, and expected tons of people to come anyway.

People have spent 2 years hearing horror stories of ICE agents rounding up innocent people and putting them in camps, and trump has spent 2 years telling the world to go fuck themselves and slapping tariffs on them.

No shit people dont wanna spend thousands of dollars to go the US right now, and there's not enough domestic interest to make up the shortfall

I imagine the games in mexico will be full, but the rest half empty

FIFA are stealing ideas from The Simpsons now:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uQNPS9v_VU

What will they try next? A monorail between the stadiums? Gianni Infantino's hippie mother? Standing outside the MetLife Stadium firing a shotgun into the air to get more people to buy tickets?

They'll fine them for racist chants, they know where they're seating

We got the world cup because otherwise the FBI was going to start rolling up all of FIFA during their 2015 corruption investigation. Instead FIFA gave us a world cup and 14 conmebol and concacaf scrubs.
>>
I don't understand FIFA at all, the main revenue was never tickets, it was TV money
>>
>>155012703
I dont thinks so. The bids for that 2026 World Cup were kinda grim anyway it was either this bid or Morocco. To host the World Cup at the time it needed the following:
>1 stadium that has 80k capacity
>1 stadium with 60k capacity
>The rest being 40k capacity
>48 different base camps and hotels
>1 base camp and hotel for refs

The only place logically that has the already exisiting infrastructure during that bidding process was the US/Canada/Mexico bid. Morocco had no chance building and fitting those criterias all of those in 8 years. Even to this day with them hosting 2030 a 6 countey world i still dont think they have capabilities of hosting it even a handful of games

Poorfags just need to engage a little or their brain activity and stop consooming so much entertainment. This world cup is a fucking warning to everybody of what's to come. Is it really that much worse to buy yourself a frozen pizza and eat it in peace in front of TV watching the game rather than spending half of your yearly income on a 2 week vacation in the hellhole called US of A?

its baseball season brother
nobody cares about soccer up here

>>155012887
they realised they could sell tickets for 100x the price who can turn that down

There was one singular case some retarded Brit girl did not have proper visa paperwork then lied and tried to do work in the country on a non-work travel visa. Then she surprise pikachued when she was held for a few days and deported but she cried to The Sun and other press so now Brits think as soon as they land in the USA they will be whisked away to death camps
Yes Redditors are that retarded
>>
>>155012703
Be careful the CIA will have you assassinated for speaking the truth. Whatever you don’t also mention that the Americans are buying up all European clubs to blow up the historic stadiums and ruin it all from the inside before it threatens NFL on the American scene.
>>
>>155012703
Why would we destroy a worldwide trillion dollar industry instead of trying to get a bigger piece of the pie
>>
Never again allow the USA to host the WC.
>>
>>155012847
Holy fucking reddit
>rounding up innocent people
Illegal aliens. What do you think happens to you or me if we enter a foreign country with no passport, no visa, no reason for being there? We get detained and kicked the fuck out. Yet for some reason it’s evil when America does it lol
>>
>>155012703
Current followed American football teams (especially college) are older than every soccer club on the planet outside the UK
Soccer will never threaten nfl/college football same reason nfl will never threaten you which is because it is plastic and has no history here

>>155013458
Based. Invite friends over, buy finger foods and have a fun time without being price raped by fifa “fan experiences”

>>155012122
I assume ticket prices will drop right before the games happen. I'm sure the stadiums will be full

The world cup should never be hosted anywhere else but Europe, period.

>>155015668
Because if you can remove that pie, everyone will be forced to eat NFL and NBA pie and pay whatever you charge for it.

>>155016038
They'll give the tickets away for free if they have to. You can look out for large groups of kids in the crowd during the matches, because unsold tickets often get given to schools.
>>
It's no different to the whole LiveNation monopoly in the music industry. Hoaxdown was just a huge transfer of wealth to the ultrarich

It's sad but i won't be giving much attention to this World Cup there's other events that out there that aren't as greedy

>Keir Starmer launches an attack on FIFA for banning refillable water bottles at the World Cup

why is FIFA so evil
Infantino seems even worse than Blatter but whilst Blatter was called out on it, Infantino gets away with bloody murder
The corruption and greed isn't even subtle
