Speaking of, Cash can you recommend a vendor to obtain tickets to games in Europe similar to StubHub? Will be in Amsterdam, Paris and Berlin over the next several months and looking to take in a mix of league and national team games.

viagogo is a great site and lots of times you can get tickets pretty cheap.
Its a legit site that is endorsed by lots of clubs. Lots of shady sites out there.
But try the club websites first.

No idea how they track this information. I bought my ticket to a Fulham v. Chelsea match from a guy on the street. So, add 1 to the US tally.

It's not just top flight football. I went to the iPro Stadium to watch Derby v Forest in January, and there were fans from Ireland and the continent in droves.
Derby play in the English Championship League (second tier for those that don't know).

I've been wanting to plan a trip for the last few years but I honestly have no freaking clue to where to even start.
SCH: If I remember correctly, I didn't say the brand was bigger nor the article, it was about global revenues. I could be wrong though I don't remember the exact post.

That's a lot of people to watch mediocre football.
