      It’s insane. Literally insane. I’m a normal world it would be a joke and they would be laughed out. There’s just so much fuckery going on in the background with deals and bribes. That’s all it’s good for now. Making certain people money. It’s always been a massive drain on resources

      That’s like several months of food. Or years worth of video games. That’s so expensive. Even if I was a big fan of the sport, I wouldn’t be able to justify spending that.

        For entertainment ticket price perspective, I paid less than $50 to see half of Led Zeppelin in concert (Jimmy Page & Robert Plant show) and it was fuckin’ awesome. But I’m not a sports fan so I wouldn’t pay even $50 to see a FIFA match.

        I’m a huge fan of the sport, living in the city where the game is held, with more than enough money to afford those tickets. I’m not even considering spending that.
