What a goal

[Who Is Gręgg🇿🇼? @greggmunikwa]

There is no reason for this Korea vs Czech game to kick off 7 hours after that Mexico South Africa game

FIFA promised World Cup tickets as low as $21. The cheapest seat at this summer's final now runs $4,185. And even at prices like that, plenty of seats are going to sit empty. FIFA pulled off making the World Cup too expensive to get into and too overpriced to fill.

When the US, Canada, and Mexico bid to host, they put it in writing: group games from $21, a final capped at $1,550. That was the pitch, and FIFA has walked away from all of it.

The last time the US hosted, in 1994, a ticket cost $25 to $475. Qatar's best final seat four years ago: about $1,600. This time FIFA started its top final seat at $6,730, then tripled its own price to $32,970 in May. That came off FIFA's checkout page, about twenty times what Qatar's best seat cost.

The prices swing because of something FIFA used for the first time at a World Cup. They call it dynamic pricing. The cost moves by the minute based on how many people are buying, the same trick airlines and concert sites use. A seat in your cart can get pricier while you are typing in your card.

Cheap seats exist, technically. The $60 ones go straight to the national teams, who hand a few hundred per game to their most loyal fans. A regular person can't buy one. A consumer group took the $60 promise to the European Commission and called it a bait-and-switch.

If you just want a single guaranteed seat at the final, the only sure way in is a corporate hospitality package. The full one, at the final's stadium in New Jersey, costs about $73,000 a head.

Then there is the resale site. FIFA built it, and FIFA takes up to 30% every time a fan resells a ticket on it. Around 180,000 tickets are stuck there now, most of them group games nobody will pay full price for. Prices have dropped so far that after the 30% fee, you lose money selling. FIFA gets paid once when it sells you the seat, and again when you try to get rid of it.

Demand was never the issue. FIFA got more than 500 million ticket requests, and its president, Gianni Infantino, said it was like a thousand years of World Cups arriving at once. The empty seats are the ones FIFA priced like a final for a midweek group game. This will be the richest World Cup ever played, around $8.9 billion to FIFA. The people who bring the flags and the songs mostly got priced out before kickoff, and they will be watching from the sofa.

I feel bad for people who don’t watch football man. FIFA WC is like the greatest sporting event in the world. Nothing comes close to it.

[B @utdbrxy]

Congrats on living long enough to see another World Cup and RIP to all those we lost along the way

[Dylan Dittrich @DylanDittrich]

There it is!

The first hydration break of the 2026 World Cup brings a full cut to commercial on Fox!

My guess: Merely the first step toward the regular installation of commercials in a sport where 45+ minutes of uninterrupted action was always the norm.

Merrill Hoge and Ron Jaworski would sit on ESPN and just teach you football. It was so sick
