    Are they checking ID's or credit cards at the gate or something? What would stop someone from texting/emailing the tickets on?

    if you can only buy tickets for yourself why do they let you buy up to 4 tickets?

    From what AO was saying to me it sounds like they just want you using that for you and your friends so that you'd have to go in together

    You could screen shot and text or email which between friends is fine but if you're trying to sell on the secondhand market you're selling to people who know you can't transfer it to them and that you'll still have access to the ticket

    Would it be possible for you guys to create a separate thread for this ticket discussion and keep this for talks about the team and the players?

    1. Fuck off, what are you missing by seeing these posts. Nothing, because literally no one was talking about anything else.

    2. It's already been done
    3. If people post a question in here I'm not going to say "post that in the PM" I'm just going to answer

    One of the trips before that he was standing inside the box and kept calling for it at his feet. Didn't get it and just kept working for position and making runs. Then comes and takes on that defender and gets that ball into the box.

    Kid belongs. This is exciting

    Obviously Reus is still hurt but Tuchel putting Pulisic in in this match shows that right now they're not playing him just to get experience. Tuchel's playing him because he's one of their best options.

    Video of the goal. Ignore the horrible pronunciation of Pulisic's name.

    I wouldn't mind checking out Russia, aside from the constant fear of being kidnapped by the Russian police/military due to being American.

    I think staying in a tent city in the fucking desert makes Qatar a hard pass before you even consider their feelings toward us.

    Fuck FIFA for putting the world's event in such shitty countries.

    Ive had the chance to work with a lot of Russian and Ukrainian students the past few years and all of them have said there would be no issues for American tourists unless you act like a jackass. A lot of it seems like common sense and to not provoke anyone and act as you would walking int he streets in NYC, Chicago, ATL ETC. Also to make time to learn the customs and traditions.

    Who knows if thats the case or not. My dad and step mom did 20+ years in the USAF as Russian & Czech linguists and have gone over many times without issue and stayed with locals. They both say youd be fine in groups and stuff but they would be weary traveling alone just because it can invite trouble and of course hooliganism is still huge in Russia. They did say that it would be best not to wear items with the flag and such on it as it will draw interest to you which would suck being at a World Cup avoiding the countries colors haha.

    Russia, and mostly all of eastern Europe, is pretty much in the 80's as far as hooliganism goes. Like you said, it would suck to not be able to wear your countries colors at the WC. I'm staying away of this one.

    We should get to see Horvath in action. That's exciting.

    Would not be upset to at some point see

    --------Wood--Jozy
    Gooch-Sacha-Kitchen-Pulisic
    Fab---Brooks-Cameron---Yedlin
    -----------Horvath

    Could swap Gooch for Green


    Or

    Green----Jozy/Wood----Pulisic
    ----------Sacha--Bradley
    -------------Kitchen
    Fab---Brooks-Cameron---Yedlin
    -----------Horvath
