Canada's World Cup Ticket Fiasco

Canada’s World Cup opener drew a shocking number of empty seats at BMO Field, despite the historic debut on home soil — and the unaffordable ticket prices didn’t help. With fans paying up to $2,240 for seats, thousands stayed home, leaving visible gaps even as supporters wore red to fill the stands. FIFA defended the pricing, citing scanned ticket data and fans possibly moving around, but the optics are bad — especially with similar issues reported in Guadalajara. As the tournament kicks off, this pricing controversy is already dominating headlines and won’t fade anytime soon. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
