It’s the most popular sporting event on the planet in a country with 300 million people, this is nothing like the Club World Cup that was held this year. The lack of tourists might not be a problem, save for maybe atmosphere.
This chart, with the huge ticket prices, is why the US was chosen.
How popular is non-american football in the US? I know its been getting more popular recently, but unlike most of europe and south america, it’s far from the #1 sport.
I have no doubt the canadian and mexican games (and the finals) will be sold out, but with these prices, the state of the US economy, and no sane person wanting to travel there, I wouldn’t be super surprised if some games in the US weren’t. After all, if you’re not from NA, you can just go to the next one 4 years later and it’s probably much cheaper.
Sadly it won’t be the ghost stadiums it would deserve though.
