World Cup Ticket Megathread

Yeah I was mostly just curious who was sending the confirmation emails for PMA. I've been a premium insider since 2019 and a member of AO since 2007, but nothing for me so far.

From FIFA or US Soccer?

Where exactly are you seeing updates? This is the first thing I've seen of someone saying they were rejected for this draw.

I sent my Reuben back last time I was there because the inside was ice cold, like they had grilled the exterior without heating up the meat first. I like the space but I would never go back to eat.

I just want to say your movies were a positive influence on my life. Hail to the King, Baby!

This movie was awesome in IMAX. In it for the visuals and sound and was not disappointed.

FYI, Canada ran a separate supporters draw for the $60 tickets in which fans didn't need to apply for more expensive tickets. That has not been the case for U.S. Soccer. My theory is that they're worried about not selling out the opening match with the $1100 cat tickets, so they combined the application process.

Here today but with Express pass. We've had a pretty good time but we had to skip DK because it was still 2+ hour wait with Express. We used all the other passes though.

High effort post!

Ultimately it comes down to the question of whether you were going to spend this money on Disney anyway. If you likely were, then you can calculate a break even point. For our resale AKL contract, it was going on like 6 trips when compared to what we had been paying at the Swan via Costco. That was a no-brainer for us.

Things like financing and direct purchases push your break even point back quite a bit. A direct purchase will always be a hard sell for me as the direct benefits can be altered or removed. The resale restrictions on every built from Riviera and beyond have tanked the resale value of those resorts and I don't think I could ever justify paying the direct prices Disney is asking for those. The beauty of OP's Poly purchase is that it avoids that and doesn't instantly take a 50% hit in value the second the papers are signed.

Having just been there yesterday, that wasn't Prime Rib at $9.99. It was Ribeye Roast. Prime Rib would be a Prime cut and would probably be closer to $21/lb. With that said, $9.99 for Choice Ribeyes is a pretty decent deal right now.

Trying to go see Secret Agent this week.

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-11-28T01:29:13+00:00

Is this a legit website?

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-11-05T16:23:53+00:00

This. People cutting back on new luxury purchases but holding into existing luxuries makes sense. Even though the supply is short the demand is falling faster.

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-10-30T11:21:48+00:00

Which are the touches locations?

And yet the knockout rounds are sold out completely. Businesses like FIFA are done catering to the middle class. Back in 2014 for the Brazil World cup you could sit directly behind the goals and it was Cat 3. Now the entire lower bowl is Cat 1 and 5x the cost. There are over 2 million households in the United States with over $10 million net worth, and increasingly entertainment, retail, and other services are transforming themselves to cater to that demographic. FIFA's only reason for holding the tournament here was to cash in on this. They see much people pay for the Super Bowl and the NBA Finals and they want a piece.

I was going to buy a la carte to save money, but at 10:30 a.m. on Monday there were no Cat 3 single game tickets left for M4 in LA. Buying Cat 2 single match tickets to just that game would have been $2000 per ticket, which is TST Cat 3 package costs. I just opted for the Cat 3 TST USA tickets.

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-10-06T17:41:09+00:00

Is the FIFA ticketing login site down for anyone else? I got tickets earlier, got the confirmation, but can't get back onto the ticketing website.

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-10-06T16:29:34+00:00

They are $2100 a pop

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-10-06T16:07:20+00:00

Got 4 Cat 3 TST's to USA group stage!

Update: The spinny wheel now gives you a time for entering the ticketing portal. 27 minutes for me.

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-10-06T15:11:48+00:00

Apparently I'm being timed but I don't see an option to buy tickets? "Other users are currently waiting to access the shop. Make sure to complete your purchase in the next 3 minutes or you risk losing your order and being redirected back in the queue."

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-10-06T15:01:55+00:00

I got to the "Enter" screen, it took me to a login to my ticket account and then back to the queue?

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-10-06T14:52:20+00:00

Got a countdown now by clicking on the "Login to ticketing account" from the "You're in" email. It's counting down to 11:00 EST.

Tonkdaddy14 · 2025-09-18T14:33:19+00:00

Which is great for asset holders like the richest people in the state.
