FIFA announced that it has sold an additional 394,433 tickets to the World Cup in Russia this summer following the closure of a three-week sales window on Tuesday.
Fans living in the United States purchased 16,462 tickets -- more than those living in any other country -- in the most recent window, which opened on March 13. Fans living in Argentina bought 15,006 tickets and fans in Colombia purchased 14,755.
Mexico (14,372), Brazil (9,962), Peru (9,766), China (6,598), Germany (5,974), Australia (5,905) and India (4,509) rounded out the top 10 countries that accounted for the most ticket purchased, which is all FIFA revealed.
More than half of the tickets sold were to locals as fans living in Russia purchased 216,134 tickets in the last three weeks.

I’m sure many of those are supporting other countries. Especially Mexico, who had like 80K fans for their friendly at Jerry World last week.

Why? It's not like they are going to a random baseball game. It's the World Cup.

I'm surprised that many people would go to a World Cup without the US team and in a mediocre at best tourist destination.

They are likely majority Mexicans or Russians with some other nationalities sprinkled in
