World Cup Ticket Prices

I had a quick look at the current marketplace cost of tickets for the Round of 32 game and the Round of 16 games at "Seattle Stadium", and they are even more expensive than when I last checked.  It is ridiculous.  So I have resigned myself to the fact that I will not watch a World Cup game in person here.  The exception - and I think the only exception - is if England is drawn into Group G.  In which case, they may well end up playing several games in Seattle - and I might consider splashing the cash for one of those games.  I think the draw is on Friday, so that is definitely something I will be keeping an eye on.  But I expect the cost of tickets - at least for any half-decent game - will only go up.  The next phase of ticket sales is going to occur about a week after the draw - but I haven't had any luck in the previous lotteries, and I don't expect this time to be any different.  Screw FIFA.
