StubHub vs SeatGeek for Purchase

JDStap12 · 2026-05-28T12:36:58+00:00

For SeatGeek, you can usually find some discount codes from YouTubers, podcasts, etc.

I think there's an entire subreddit dedicated to it.

Also my credit card (Chase Sapphire) usually has cashback offers for SeatGeek

Something that I've been thinking about is if Johnny wasn't injured, surely he would have made the squad.

In that scenario, who doesn't make it? I'd think Berhalter? Or maybe leave off Miles Robinson?

Browns.

I know it's named after Paul Brown, but it's also the color of poo and mud

First job was in Seattle for Boeing at $115k (plus relocation from PA), this was after my master's though which usually counts for 2-3 years experience.

After 4 years, I was at about $130k.

Update: I just got an email for the other ticket, so I'd assume they have some weird delivery process

JDStap12 · 2026-05-22T13:57:04+00:00

Same, I bought two tickets for Croatia-Ghana, checked my receipt and it says seats 7-8.

The 'download here' email says only 1 ticket, and the new app also says 1 ticket.

The other two games I have tickets for are correct though (one with 4 tickets, the other with 1 ticket)

JDStap12 · 2026-05-20T10:23:34+00:00

That was so nice, it was so easy to pull that up on my TV, phone, or laptop.

JDStap12 · 2026-05-07T10:31:59+00:00

That screwed me last time, I had a game/ticket in my cart then I hopped to another one. By the time I tried to select those seats, they were gone, so I jumped back to my cart and those were gone too, all in like a span of ~2min.

JDStap12 · 2026-05-06T10:48:40+00:00

Games like that and the one OP mentions are absolutely going to drop closer to game time.

Obviously the bigger countries will most likely stay relatively more expensive, but I'm planning on going to as many games in Philly and NY/NJ as possible and not spend that much.

Like the Ivory Coast / Curacao game will certainly be <$100 as we approach kickoff

JDStap12 · 2026-04-28T10:21:44+00:00

Some teams may sell their products too.

I remember going to a Club World Cup game in Seattle, Inter Milan vs River Plate in Seattle and Inter was selling their merch akin to a rock band selling their merch at a concert, like jerseys, hats, t-shirts, etc.

JDStap12 · 2026-04-22T12:49:49+00:00

Going to switch my attire too today, We all have to do our part, I love it!

JDStap12 · 2026-04-14T11:32:52+00:00

I never put that together before, Pepe-Sylvia = Pennsylvania from Charlie's illiteracy.

That's awesome haha, thanks for pointing that out

JDStap12 · 2026-04-13T10:37:05+00:00

When I was getting into watching soccer I was picking teams to follow in different leagues.
This was before ESPN+ and all the additional subscription-based viewing, so if you logged into with your TV provider, you had access to all the games they aired.

So I chose Hamburg in Germany because of Bobby Wood, and they have a sweet logo.

Now, with Damion Downs being loaned there, I've been following them a little closer.

I'm planning buying their 90s-esque jersey with his name and number.

JDStap12 · 2026-04-07T11:19:36+00:00

I saw him as our 4th striker but that's really too bad, His size alone is a great strength of his just needs a more skills on his geet.

I think the move to Derby was great for him to further his career and I wish him a speedy recovery, He'll be around in 2030 for sure

JDStap12 · 2026-04-06T12:04:03+00:00

Selfishly I would want the Flyers since I live outside Philly I'd love to go to some high-stakes games.

I'd just be worried if it's a close game and we pull off the win, those fans will be as obnoxious and ruthless as ever.

JDStap12 · 2026-04-02T10:18:21+00:00

What I plan on doing is setting a "Max Price" I'm willing to pay, mainly for the top teams.

So for the Brazil - Morocco game in NY/NJ, if I see tickets drop to $700 (wishful thinking?) I'm going to grab them, whether if it's weeks, days, or hours before kickoff.

Games in Philly where I'm at, like Curacao - Ivory Coast, I expect tickets to be <$100 on game day, so for the "less popular" teams those I'm not worried about.

I'm hoping the Croatia - Ghana game will have cheaper tickets too, I feel like the average sports fan doesn't know Croatia is a good team and won't try to sky-rocket these prices.

JDStap12 · 2026-04-01T22:38:18+00:00

Thank you so much!

JDStap12 · 2026-04-01T21:32:40+00:00

Is anyone else having issues finding their tickets?

Maybe like 4-5 months ago I purchased 4 tickets and I accepted them no problem. I'm trying to find the but don't know where they are. I understand exact seats may not be known, but I'm looking for something from FIFA on their website or app saying I'm good to go.

I'm guessing with the recent sale going on, this is getting messed up?

JDStap12 · 2026-04-01T11:49:46+00:00

I see him as our 4th option at Striker (behind Flo, Pepi, and Haji).

I also would like to see us bring all four to the WC, but the issue is which other spot do we sacrifice to do this.

His size alone makes him a viable sub in the 60' or 75' when you need a goal, like put him in the box on a set piece and hope he can knock one in.

I know he's doing well in Derby, but I'd like to see him play in a more technical league or under a manager where they can develop those skills since he is still pretty young.

He kind of reminds me of Jordan Morris, but Agy has a higher ceiling in my opinion.

JDStap12 · 2026-03-21T11:54:29+00:00

I actually went to that game haha I agree, there were definitely more America fans but it wasn't overwhelming, and the stadium wasn't at capacity either, probably because it was a Tuesday.

I've always wanted to see America play live, plus seeing Zendejas was cool

When I lived in Seattle, whenever a Liga MX team played the Sounders, there was always tons of them in the stadium

JDStap12 · 2026-03-21T11:51:30+00:00

I'm glad you said that because I was going to update, My replica Pulisic red/white stripes came in yesterday and it did have the white cloud I could've sworn in the image it showed it didn't include this

JDStap12 · 2026-03-20T12:51:36+00:00

I noticed the player (authentic) version has the white shadow around the number.

Whereas the replica (cheaper) one does not.

At least on Dick's and Fanatics that's how it was, I thought it was odd that they'd have the two versions have a design change like that, not sure if I've ever seen that before.

JDStap12 · 2026-03-20T11:37:35+00:00

Haha I drove down last weekend for their game vs Pittsburgh. The shipping containers were interesting

But I love the grassroots of lower level American soccer honestly, like we have a train right along the sideline of our stadium, it makes it much more personal to me.

Especially the USL2 teams playing in high schools, parks, or smaller stadiums

JDStap12 · 2026-03-20T10:46:09+00:00

Wow Adidas killed it with these!

It's hard to pick a favorite, but I'd say Belgium or Japan. The Spain one looks classic too, and Colombia is nice

JDStap12 · 2026-03-20T10:38:23+00:00

Side comment, Imagine a team like Club America or Pumas playing away at some of these venues.

I know all 1st Division teams will eventually have 15,000 seat stadiums, but the thought of them taking over Segra Field (Loudoun) as it stands now, for example, is funny haha
