| While I admire your enthusiasm for football and the World Cup, please take the advice of one who has 'been there, done that' etc., etc........save your money and watch it on TV. Unless you are the offspring of very, very rich and indulgent parents, forget about attending the WC or any other like events (Olympics for example). They are pure and simply a complete rip-off. From the time you get your over-priced ticket, everything connected with such events are purely designed to gouge those attending. Food, transportation, accomodation, souvenirs....all are marked up as much as 300-500%, knowing full well you are a 'mark' and there for the taking. Sorry to be such a cynical 'down-in-the-mouth', but most people who have attended these over-hyped tournaments in the past 10 years, will tell you the same thing. |
