Outrage Over U.S. World Cup Ticket Prices
Many soccer fans were excited about the men's World Cup coming to the U.S. next year, but their enthusiasm was short-lived when they discovered the high ticket prices set by FIFA.
Mike Trucano, a self-described soccer obsessive from Virginia, was initially thrilled to hear the news.
"We were just so excited that it was coming,"he says. Trucano has attended every World Cup since 1994, traveling to various countries including South Korea and South Africa.
Soccer fans, including Trucano, are now expressing outrage over the
"absolute madness"of the ticket prices, which has dampened their excitement about the upcoming tournament.
