$166 for two sports tickets sounds like a fairly good deal to me.

*Risking Mickey's wrath by posting baseball info in his thread*
59 bucks for 4 tickets at Turner Field for Braves home games. Baseball IS better. |

Such words are punishable by death. Hannah isn't the only fanatically loyal Atlanta Braves fan here.

This obviously can only be solved via gladiator combat between twenty Braves fans and twenty soccer fans. I pick Brazil.

Wow, a thread about football that actually deals with football.
Brazil hooligans are wimps. Any European lower league team has better (?) hooligans than them.
For me, it's a toss-up between some Chelsea Headhunters or some blokes from Feyenoord's vak S.

oh, I thought I'd have to pay category 4, which they charged to my credit card already. I'm getting a refund because I was willing to accept a lower category. It would have cost me about 270 for the 2 category 4's, but still well worth not having to pay scalper tickets. I'm just curious now, to see what kind of nightmare it's going to be to get into the game, with them checking every ticket for passport numbers and id's.

I'm just benchmarking against U.S. sports, period. Having spent embarassing time on the darker side of (admittedly tame, compared globally) soccer fanship, I've come to realize that comparing any firm to another starts to push the point of... well, triteness.

Soccer is the world's sport, except in the U.S.
