They screwed up by allowing scalpers to buy up a lot of the tickets and create this artificially high demand. Should have outlawed prices over list price but FIFA doesn’t care because they are getting a fee from every transaction.

Yeah, because they’re the ones that say you’ll get murdered if you dare step into a major city. Definitely not Fox.

Aren’t they going to be a state soon? Trump said it would happen. What about taking over Greenland? Any news on that?

The group stage games here in Atlanta are garbage.

I always get a good chuckle if of people who use these broad statements, speaking on behalf of a large group of people.

It won't be a flop while the political landscape has certainly have some concerned overall it'll be a big success. The larger factor here is absolutely FIFA and how extremely greedy corrupt they have become the get in price for even a ticket to see Hati in Atlanta is $300. God forbid you try to see one the elite European teams or America

Flopping is what they do best.

Every game is like watching a bunch of happy dogs rolling around in dead things.

There is a lot of negative news pertaining to the US in foreign media, but I just returned from a 2 week rte 66 trip and met people daily from around the globe. One business I was in, I met 3 people from Australia and they weren't together.
