You can't buy tickets for games that the US would be playing in, because that hasn't been decided, so it seems safer to wait for the schedule to come out and see how much/where the US games are and if it's reasonable to pay whatever they're asking to go see a WC match as a neutral.
It would be a shame if the WC comes here and I didn't go to any games or get to bring my 13yo to any games, but US Soccer and FIFA don't seem real concerned.
US was assigned west coast sites over a year ago.

ahh, I see now... so, we know all group d games will be west coast, and we know the US is group D... well, in that case, I guess I'm not going to any US world cup games because the tickets aren't going to be cheap, the travel won't be cheap and the US won't be fun to watch. I'd go to Philly, Atlanta, New York, Boston to watch them... but not west coast.
Okay, so that's a little helpful, but I'm still not prepared to shell out $500 to get some tickets for that first Philly game with NO idea if it will be a game worth going to. Buy the ticket and then wait for Trump's little dance recital at the Kennedy Center in December I guess. Eff FIFA man.
We don't know what Group the USA will be in, assuming they make it to the tournament. They might be in "Group D" for qualifying but that doesn't mean they'll be in Group D for the tournament itself -- the tournament groups are seeded with the top ranked teams and then randomly filled in with lottery drawings.

USA has a tourist issue. With the current administration they will be begging people to go to games held in the US.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:I dunno... we'll see what dynamic prices look like.

Judging by the result of their match this weekend the USMNT won’t survive the group stage. I’d rather see top teams play.
I think you're wrong. I watched the game. US was the better side, just didn't get a result. Anything can happen in 1 game, thats why they get 3 games in the group stage. USA has a fan problem, and you are contributing to that.
