Insane World Cup Final ticket prices


Infantino is making Blatter look like the love child of the Dalai Lama and Mandela
Now it’s being compounded by his being endorsed and encouraged by the most powerful and at same time most venal and evil man ever to be POTUS
 
I was going to Dallas to the opener England/ Croatia but the real supporters couldn’t get reasonable tickets for cost. I live in the US nothing through my work or my wife’s. I personally have given up.

Just looked on sky sports ,they have a day by day and time schedule of every match....the first game I'll watch will be 7 days in (England )
Terrible decisions to extend the amount of teams ,some rotten fixtures early on.

I had a scoot through the fixtures for the groups and the kick off times are wild. Appreciate they're on the other side of the world but I'm not staying up late or getting up early for them.

There's a few at 8pm that I'll watch bits of but like you say, the appeal of the competitors is a tough one.

I agree there's really very little honour left in winning the darned thing. The whole object of what has now become a farce of a competition is to make a shit load of money for one of the most disgusting organisations on the planet and their associates.

It will descend to the pits when Trump awards the trophy. Even in the unlikely event that England won the competition it would be pretty stomach churning to be handed to Cup by a man like that.

To be honest I put greater value on the European Nations Cup and I would be quite happy if the winner of that played the winner of the Copa America and was recognised as World Champions.

if the authories actually cared about this (both world cup and domestic game) they could ban all of these resale ticket sites. wouldn't take long, and would protect the fans

my mates has bought one for the man united game on saturday, think he's paid £70 off some third party site, somewhere in the home sections... if its genuine, its a disgrace that SAFC are allowing it to happen

Supply and demand. Happens everywhere in football - thanks to Sky making the game trendy.

Weird how Americans wear being ripped off as some badge of honour, like they see it as a flex if they can afford to be ripped off.

I'll have one of those, as soon as my refund from "Pied" comes through. Any day now.

Surely no-one going to any WC match was expecting cheap.

The only issue for me with WC will be how much of a disastrous shitshow it will be.
 
Seen the evil Hood on Sky talking about the pricing and actually agreeing with the stupid dynamic pricing.Saying Americans as sports fans are used to paying a premium for sporting events and he was basically all for it.This is the first World Cup ever I have very little interest in really hope it’s farce.I mean USA 94 was one of the crapest World Cups I can remember.

It's $2 million and obviously a joke, as are the ticket prices anyway!

“If some people put on the resale market some tickets for the final at $2million dollars, number one it doesn’t mean that the tickets cost $2m dollars and number two it doesn’t mean that somebody will buy these tickets,” Infantino explained.

“And if somebody buys a ticket for the final for $2m dollars, I will personally bring a hot dog and a Coke to make sure that he has a great experience!"

That's more like it. But can you wear a cap (not a red one) to prevent me being blinded by the glare from your bonce.
