>FIFA Club World Cup group stage sees lack of fans attending games across USA
The real world cup might not fare much better

The real world cup will do fine. It's just that no one cares about the CWC except Brazilians

>>149518744 (OP)
That would be a big surprise. 1994 had great attendance, and the sport has definitely grown in the US since then. The CWC is a newly established plastic cups many clubs treat as a lucrative preseason tournament. It cannot be compared with the World Cup, the biggest thing in the sport

>>149518744 (OP)
I dont think so. Only fans of the participating clubs care about the CWC. The actual WC will of course be followed by millions of people from every nation.

>>149518857
Will WC fans be allowed to tailgate?
Picrel is what the venues are like in the US

>why is the planet heating up

>>149518744 (OP)
The real world cup will get tourists from all over the world. The CWC is just a summer meme cup

>>149518744 (OP)
they dont care about attentance. they set a ridiculously high price floor so they can force the sponsors to pay even more ridiculous rates for suites and other premium experiences.

>600$ tickets to watch a summer audi cup live when its streamed for free.
I dont blame the burgers. If anything the attendance is impressive given those ticket prices and the fact its a friendly summer tournament.

>>149519801
i think we should do means testing before the world cup. if youre getting any govt assistance you cant attend the games.

>>149518854
>The real world cup will do fine
not if you guys keep doing all those weather and cooling breaks
stop with this shit idc if players die in the pitch

>>149519830
If anything you should make the unemployed go for free to fill up the stadiums and avoid it looking empty

>>149519876
i would rather it be empty than see 50k dirty poors wasting thousands of dollars they say they dont have

>>149518845
people wanted to visit the US in 1994, nobody wants to be here let alone vacation

>>149518744 (OP)
>The real world cup might not fare much better
the average normie didn't know what this tournament was, when or why it was happening and a lot of them thought it was the other world cup like a day before the tournament started. it confused the consoomers

>>149518744 (OP)
Maybe. Since it's so spread out. But I'm gonna be honest with you. If it wasn't for /sp/ I would not know there was a "Club World Cup" on.

I have not seen or heard a word about it outside of this place. Most people have no idea it's going on, if "their" team isn't in it they 100% haven't heard of it.

Most normal fans would consider this to be promotional/pre-season friendly mickey mouse tournament.

Because India and China pump out more pollution into the atmosphere than Europe, North America and Oceania combined

>>149518744 (OP)
They should've just staged it in smaller soccer stadiums

>>149521068
It's like Marie Kondō,
All the empty seats looked bad but of course they were expected, a packed Nashville or Metro stars field would've been kino

>>149519862
Weren't those started in the 2014 world cup?

>>149518744 (OP)
No one would go to these games in other countries. Do you think Flamengo vs Ulsan would get 30k in England or Spain?

The 2000 tournament had a slightly higher average in Brazil but there's a caveat: half the games involved a Brazilian team. The games that didn't had empty stadiums

>>149521085
It would habe neem cool to play the group games at least I stadiums where clubs actually play no one plays in the rose bowl unless it's real Madrid

too many euro teams, most of them have very small amount of fans

>>149518744 (OP)
The games need to be at night for it to be a success in the US. Nobody wants to sit in that heat

>>149519876
You don't want to reward unemployed people otherwise you get Yuropoors level of welfare leeches

>>149522006
LA Galaxy play in the Rose Bowl. I went to the game last year against LAFC and it was 80k people

>>149520180
>nobody wants to be here let alone vacation
Sure

>>149523132
That was during Biden tho

>>149521068
FIFA and Infantino are incapable of modesty. They are so far up their own ass that they thought this tournament would revolutionize the sport, and for that, the biggest stadiums available seemed fitting

>>149518744 (OP)
Real Madrid games are full to the flag THOUGH

>>149520180
>people wanted to visit the US in 1994, nobody wants to be here let alone vacation

the pre-WC hype will get arses in chairs, americunts are the biggest FOMO sufferers in the world

>>149518744 (OP)
Mickey Mouse cup with atrocious scheduling.
>>149518857
This. You can't get 70,000 Fluminense and Inter fans in North Carolina at 15PM to watch a game between the two clubs. But you can definitely get 70,000 Brazilians and Italians (+neutrals) there for a World Cup R16 game.

>>149529427
cope we'll never care about soccer

>>149519087
Every parking lot in the world combined in to one big monstrosity would still only be some completely negligible percentage of the world's surface you brainlet.

>>149529382
he's right though. this country is a god damned shithole now.
