The entire downtown Toronto area is completely covered in FIFA shit, with soccer fields in front of city hall and huge FIFA photo ops everywhere. There’s always a huge crowd around them. I don’t get how it’s still so popular
Well, unfortunately, that’s just the way it is. If people would sacrifice their own entertainment just a few times for the greater good, organizations like FIFA wouldn’t exist. Unfortunately, though, they don’t—not even when it comes to things as utterly dispensable as sporting events. The result is the world we live in today.

They probably see how many idiots still buy the game just to complain about it for their fifth year in a row, then blow CC debt on their FUT team only to have it all reset a month after they’re finally happy with it; every 12 months.
One of the most poorly user rated games for over half a decade, according to hundreds and thousands of people that hand over way too much money each year like it’ll be any different this time.
FIFA has noticed.

The mispriced tickets were sold through the official World Cup site on 21 May, Fifa said in an email message to buyers. That date was more than three months after Fifa president Gianni Infantino said all 104 World Cup games had sold out.
So it’s okay for YOU to be dishonest, but…

Why not ask them to buy two tickets while they’re at it?
What about the literal thousands of tickets that have been given away for free for greasing Palms and nepotism etc… part of the legit reason for increasing prices (not the reason for the insane prices though).
Do they have to pay for the tickets? a percent of the ticket prices? Should they even offer a donation?
Charity??
Not a fucking chance.
I hope I’m alive when FIFA competitor takes over and fucks FIFA 60 feet under.

HAHAHHAHA no
these people expected to pay full price up until the payment was skipped.
the seats are reserved for them still, so honestly, they can’t complain too much.
The only soccer team I’m a real fan of is the Fuck Fifa Team.

Fifa seems to be composed of complete scumbags.
