Yeah, the greed is hugely disappointing
Our city is a host city and I had WC tickets on my radar for a long time. Then a few months ago when they went on sale they wanted you to pay a fee just for the opportunity to buy tickets, and it has gotten worse since. We said no thanks and haven't looked since. Now, if I hear a bunch of unsold seats are going dirt cheap, we might look again.
