Why should we be embarrassed? I'll go to a World Cup game if I can buy a ticket under $100.
But no, FIFA is trying to rip us off.
They can do that in NYC and LA.
But Kansas City?
Tickets to MLS games fir the cheap seats start around $50 each, but secondary market is around $30.
FIFA is trying to rip us off, that’s true.
I’m embarrassed that we resort to playing Worl Cup soccer on a crappy pro football field, and not a soccer pitch, for the sole reason of greed. I hope the NFL stadium stands are empty.
IMHO, we should be playing the games at the 20K - 28K sized stadiums that we have for MLS. These places would be packed, sellouts every time, driving ticket prices up.
They made the ticket prices way too high. In my mind, this is a disaster waiting to happen. Ludicrous.
