Shame every world cup can't be in America
>>
>>155280415
What will they do with these giant flags after the world cup?
>>
Al- andalus 2030 will have more soul
>>
>>155280473
Use them to wipe their poopy buttholes
>>
>>155280415
This is my first time watching the sport, is this not standard presentation?
>>
>>155280682
There are always giant flags. Maybe anons liked the shape of those ones. Maybe those are larger.
>>
I dislike the commercial, i mean, drink break, it completely destroys the phasing of the game
>>
>>155280415
So what about these pics? What do they prove?
Also, at least two of these games were not in the US
>>
>>155280415

>>155280848
do you ever get exhausted of playing an entire game of football? do you wanna get your throat dry as a rock? drink water.
>>
>TFW no game in your state
>>
>>155281061
Lol no, im not a pussyboy, if anything just throw them a bottle on the fly
>>
I love giant flags, so the World Cup is a great excuse for one
>>
>>155280415
Trump fixes this, winner gets annexed
>>
>>155280415
don't the swiss seethe like crazy when their flag isn't depicted as a perfect square
>>
>>155281583
spain never recovered from this
>>
>>155281116
Which state?
I'm afraid Wyoming's chances won't rise in the future

Every state in red doesn't have a game this wc
>>
>>155280415
The viewing parties in major cities with big screens should definitely stay.

In real life the buzz is beyond belief, but if you were to turn on ESPN they're showing womens college softball and talking about nfl training camp tardiness- nothing about the World Cup (or the NHL Stanley Cup Finals either for that matter)
>>
>>155281894
the final shouldn't have been in NJ. it should have been in LA or NYC or at least boston
>>
>>155281920
ESPN doesn't have the rights so why would they hype up the world cup?
>>
>>155281986
boston is fucking awful
and their stadium in foxborough is even worse
>>
>>155280415
Don't forget Canada and Mexico are hosting too!
>>
>>155281894
I want one in alaska and Hawaii
>>
>>155282034
They're the ones calling themselves "The Worldwide Leader in Sports"
>>
>>155281986
the stadium is considered a nyc facility
>>
>>155281894
Imagine world cup on those massive college stadiums
>>
>>155281894
Is the reason why Vegas is not on it because of the heat and the stanley cup finals (which they get kwab'd out of tonight)? Because this is a huge missed opportunity.
>>
>>155280415
when does Iran play?
>>
>>155281894
It should have been held entirely in West Virginia
>>
>>155282384
only eric cantona knows that
>>
>>155282165
Since yurofootball pitches are wider than burgerfootball pitches, stadiums have to be redesigned. Allegiant Stadium is apparently too narrow, it can't reach the FIFA-desired pitch dimensions
Also, it is quite small compared to the stadiums that got waved through. So not enough profit
>>
>>155280848
>blaming that on America instead of Fifa's jewry
yeah just like the ticket prices huh
>>
>>155282165
Nothing to do with the NHL finals, this was decided long before anyone knew the Vegas franchise would reach the finals
>>
>>155281986
The NYC stadium is the NJ one
>>
>>155282164
They're not that massive because they use bleachers and therefore reach considerably higher fan density. Football stadiums require actual bowl seats, that would lower capacity by quite a bit
Also, many of them probably don't meet other bullshit FIFA requirements like VIP or media space or some shit. It is very hard to satisfy FIFA stadium demands if your stadium is a few decades old
>>
>>155282471
>Allegiant Stadium is apparently too narrow, it can't reach the FIFA-desired pitch dimensions
That's fucking insane not to consider this seeing as how it's only a few years old, and the Nevada heat is unreal.
>>
>>155282654
Qatar had a stadium built out of shipping containers give me a break
>>
>>155282121
>>155282634
oh ok
>>
>>155282781
I think FIFA was making threats over SoFi Stadium for the same reason but it seems they came to terms.
>>
>>155281894
It should have been entirely held in Rhode Island.
>>
>>155282781
I find it insane as well, very surprising
>>155283103
Qatar also gave every FIFA official a golden yacht and some sex slaves, that's not exactly a secret
Also, this stadium was just what FIFA wanted at the time: some meme to pretend the event is "sustainable". Didn't matter that the stadium never got used as intended afterwards
Not the same situation. Not your fault, but FIFA is just FIFA
>>
>>155282053
Boston is great, Gillette would be terrible for the final though, that’s true.
>>
>>155281986
The NJ stadium is NYC’s stadium. It’s like how the Statue of Liberty is technically in NJ. It is a weird choice for the final though, it’s big and gets a great atmosphere but it’s kind of out of the way (read: in the middle of a swamp in NJ). Does at least have train access I guess. I was sure they’d put the final in Dallas or LA. Not that I’m complaining, I grew up in Jersey, home state final is kino.
>>
>>155280473
soak up the algae in the reflecting pool
>>
>>155283543
The Statue of Liberty is legally part of New York territory. Look it up.
>>
Can't believe people like the rams stadium
It looks worse than the meadlowlands one
>>
Dallas has been the best host city and had the best game btw
>>
>>155280415
The Canadian stadium is the most sovlless thing Ive ever seen
>>
>>155283543
LA didn't get the final because the stadium is too small for the final (FIFA wants 75,000+) and because the time zone of LA doesn't suit Europe as well. Also, they had some argument with Kroenke
I think they chose MetLife because they can market it as "New York City", even though it is in New Jersey. Dallas didn't quite match their marketability demand, I think. Plus the time zone is a bit better
it apparently was a very close decision, though
>>
>>155281686
Close. Colorado. I bet you couldn't tell the difference if they were unlabeled and drawn next to each other.
>>
3 QUARTERS DONE BOYS
YES THEYRE QUARTERS
>>
>>155283834
Yeah, but it's not built in a swamp that results in shitty field that causes exploding knees.
>>
>>155284044
On a map you mean? Colorado is super easy to spot. You don't even have to be an autist like me. Pretty sure I can correctly point to every US state without error in under two minutes. Not that this is special. New Hampshire and Vermont are the only ones who I sometimes mix up
Anyway, I assume you live in/near Denver then? I imagine Colorado to be quite nice, never been there, of course (though it isn't irrelevant by any means as far as I am concerned)
>>
>>155284418
No, I meant the 2 raw ass quadrilaterals next to each other on a blank background.
>>
>>155284588
Ohhh, I see!
Isn't Colorado a bit ... longer? I thought Wyoming was basically a perfect square, I think Colorado isn't. But yeah, I wouldn't be sure
>>
>>155284329
Meadowlands typically has turf not grass
>>
>>155281894
There are no games being played in New York

Boston has literally the nicest inner city I have seen in my life. What's better?
>>
>>155280415
anon like 3 of these games were in the US
>>
>>155282165
FIFA requires natural grass fields with a couple inches of dirt underneath the field. Allegiant doesn't meet this requirement with their retractable field and it would be wayy too expensive to add a field like that, especially compared to a stadium like Metlife.
>>
>>155288605
5 were
>>
>>155286177
I take it that you've never been to anywhere outside of New England then.
>>
>>155284418
>New Hampshire and Vermont are the only ones who I sometimes mix up
Vermont is V-shaped
>>
>>155283834
Have you been inside it? It's fucking amazing
>>
>>155293089
I've been to every major region of the States, and 10 other countries. Boston was far and away the nicest all-around experience of any major city, and I live on the opposite side of the country. Tell me which metro area you reside in so I can laugh at you
>>
>>155281894
All I see here is foreigners missing out on heat stroke and tornadoes, what a shame
>>
The USA and Canada are the most boring Hosts this World Cup should have been held only in Mexico FIFA screwed up by making this a shared World Cup
>>
>>155298969
But FIFA sees this as an opportunity to get more Americans watching the sport, so it was the right choice for them.
>>
>>155299304
The 2030 World Cup is going to be worse its going to be spread across 5 different countries
>>
>>155298969
>FIFA screwed up by making this a shared World Cup
You’re right, they should’ve put away the charade and had every game in the US
>>
>>155298300
>I've been to every major region of the States, and 10 other countries
Imagine thinking that makes you well travelled lmao.
>Boston was far and away the nicest all-around experience of any major city, and I live on the opposite side of the country
are you paul pierce lmao? The low iq ghetto mentality and bawwstin worship makes sense in that case
>>
>>155299543
i get having a match in ur-a-gay for the centenario, but why also have one in argie and pair-of-gay?
>>
>>155280415
>Shame every world cup can't be in Mexico*

fixed
>>
>>155300417
Which major city in North America is nicer? Still waiting on an answer there
>>
>>155283855
Dallas is the best place to host because it is the least walkable big city I've ever been to and would therefore make foreigners seeth most.
