? i know some people are super hyped for the world cup, but have you seen the prices on those tickets? it's just crazy! and don't even get me started on the tech issues - i've been following this with friends who tried to buy tickets online and they just can't seem to get them 
. like, isn't there a way to make ticket sales more fair for everyone? not everyone has that kind of cash lying around 
.
its soooo frustrating! i dont think its w orth it 2 pay that much 4 a ticket...i mean how many times can u watch da same game anyways? 
what's wrong with fifa's system? it's so buggy and unreliable... i dont think its worth paying these insane prices just to watch some football 
How can they justify charging insane prices that change in seconds?! 
And don't even get me started on the tech issues - it's like they're trying to make it impossible for fans to get tickets! 
I swear, if I wanted to throw my money away, I'd be the one buying lottery tickets, not FIFA World Cup ones! 
Anyway, I'm staying far, far away from that ticket frenzy... and I don't think anyone should have to pay those outrageous prices to watch a game.
... like, what's the point of having a ticketing system that's so glitchy? sounds like some major money-grab to me 
). But for those who can't afford it... well, that's just a shame 
.
... i heard some fans are even getting tickets that they can't use because of price hikes in like 5 seconds 
. They're basically nickel-and-diming fans into oblivion. Like, what even is dynamic pricing? Is that just code for "we don't really care how much you can afford"? And the tech behind it? Forget about it 
. I mean, who needs all that drama just to buy a freaking ticket? Not me, that's for sure 
.
Not sure if it's worth getting caught up in this hype if you're just gonna be stuck with overpriced tickets. 
I feel bad for those people who are struggling to afford tickets. Maybe FIFA should rethink their pricing model? 
I'm not gonna lie, I really want to see this World Cup, but £1,200?! That's just ridiculous. Maybe FIFA should rethink their pricing model or something... 
. Anyone else having a hard time scoring tickets?
