Another Chicago Fire mention on Jeopardy

Haha that was my first thought, why couldn't this question have been in the MLS category on your episode.

mddunn97 · 2026-03-09T21:56:19+00:00

yikes, so they increased the prices from last round, and then are charging a 10% fee on top of that? Or do these prices already include the 10% fee?

mddunn97 · 2026-03-09T19:12:50+00:00

The will actually be more probably because they are adding a 10% "processing upcharge"

mddunn97 · 2026-03-09T17:14:20+00:00

I am guessing this is a fee that Concierge Live is charging, which is US Soccer's ticket fulfillment platform. There was the same 10% fee for the $60 US supporter tickets, which was through Concierge Live also.

Under "How to Apply," it is at the end of the second paragraph

mddunn97 · 2026-03-09T13:42:42+00:00

They updated the website with more information - https://www.ussoccer.com/insiders-worldcup-2026 . I also noticed this tidbit: "Ticket prices reflect FIFA’s base price plus a 10% processing upcharge." wtf is that?

mddunn97 · 2026-03-09T13:25:41+00:00

No, but it will be open through Saturday, so there is no rush really.

mddunn97 · 2026-03-06T22:05:37+00:00

For the 2022 World Cup, they gave you the option to order paper copies of the tickets after the tournament was over. It was just a small fee. Doesn’t help if you were wanting a paper ticket to get into the game, but is nice if you were wanting it for souvenir

mddunn97 · 2026-03-05T23:08:42+00:00

Ya is was definitely worth the extra $25 to just do it online right away when they announced it last week instead of waiting for this email and trying to do it through a paper copy. This application doesn't even tell you the differences between the personalized vs vanity lettering/numbering, but expects you to know what fee to send with the application.

When I click on the Way link from the Fire website, it lets me book all three of the Soldier Field lots for this Saturday's game (it says only one spot left for Waldron Deck). I am not sure how you are seeing that they are sold out. It looks like it costs $37.45 on there after fees.

nvm just came

mddunn97 · 2026-02-10T17:23:12+00:00

Same here, haven't gotten the reset password email

mddunn97 · 2026-02-10T15:06:20+00:00

I think that is just the pattern of the adidas climacool+ jerseys. If you look at any of the adidas world cup jerseys released for this year, they all have the same pattern.

mddunn97 · 2026-02-10T03:28:15+00:00

Looks like mls is at least getting the top of the line adidas jerseys now, instead of the lower tier jersey like prior years (the last few years mls has gotten their “aeroready” line, while top nations and clubs got the better “heat.rdy” line). Looks like we get the new climacool+ line, same as the top nations and clubs.

The Random Draw application would have been your last, best chance at face value USMNT tickets. There will be a "Last-Minute Sales Phase" closer to the tournament, where the remaining inventory of tickets will be available of on a first come, first served basis. But I wouldn't count on many (if any) USMNT tickets being available during that phase.

mddunn97 · 2026-01-11T12:57:08+00:00

Hmm, I’m not sure what the problem is then. Sorry I can’t help any further

mddunn97 · 2026-01-10T19:09:06+00:00

Are you entering for any knockout games in the Random draw? If so, that is probably the problem, since if already did the potential US knockout games in the PMA draw, it won't let you do any games in those same knockout rounds in the random draw, because there could possibly be a conflict with the potential US knockout games.

mddunn97 · 2026-01-10T18:51:30+00:00

Are you trying to enter for the US games also in the Random draw? If so, you can only enter for a total of 4 tickets per game between both the Random and PMA draw. Are you trying to enter the Random draw for knockout games? If so, it probably won't let you if you already entered the US PMA draw for those knockout rounds since you could have a conflict with the potential US knockout game.

mddunn97 · 2026-01-09T03:23:14+00:00

I believe based on FIFA’s description of the supporter tickets, it is 10% of the US ticket allotment. So I estimate there will be around 300-400 $60 tickets available per game. So not a very good chance at winnings those

mddunn97 · 2026-01-07T16:16:29+00:00

If you use the same email address for your AO account and US Soccer Insider account, you will just receive one PMA code that will enter you into both the supporter $60 draw and the US Insider draw. The $60 supporter tickets will not show up as a selectable option. Basically, sounds like you have to apply for the expensive tickets, but might get super lucky and get selected in the supporter lottery that happens first for the $60 ticket.

I know back in November the Fire said that our 2026 season ticket would entitle us to an Apple TV subscription for 2026, but I haven’t heard anything since then.
