    Are you doing those times by EST? If so then the second two games should be at 930am not 830. :peekaboo:

    None of 64 World Cup games sold out

    Associated Press

    JOHANNESBURG -- More than 160,000 World Cup tickets are still available with the tournament kickoff just two weeks away, and more than half of those will go on sale Friday, according to FIFA.

    FIFA secretary general Jerome Valcke revealed the ticketing status at a ceremony Thursday marking the handover of Johannesburg's Ellis Park stadium to World Cup organizers.

    None of the 64 games is sold out, and FIFA said it would release an extra 90,000 tickets -- which were not taken by its various sponsors and affiliates -- to the general public on Friday.

    Organizers said the latest ticket release would be the last "big inventory available for the public" for Africa's first World Cup. They added there may be unannounced releases during the tournament.

    Valcke said "all is nearly perfect" when asked about final World Cup preparations, but the high-end Category 1 tickets, which range from $160 to $900, appear to be causing problems.

    More than 75,000 Category 1 tickets, unaffordable for the majority of South Africans, are still available.

    Valcke said FIFA had set a target of selling 97 to 98 percent of tickets to equal figures at the last World Cup in Germany, and he was hopeful organizers would reach the milestone. FIFA said it has already reached 96 percent sales of the 2.88 million tickets available for the tournament.

    A total of 4,000 tickets in all four categories are available for the opening game, nearly 7,000 tickets for the semifinals, and 861 for the final.

    About 360,000 foreign visitors are expected for the tournament, nearly 100,000 less than initial estimates, which makes it unclear where the remaining ticket sales for the more expensive seats will come from.

    Tournament organizers' ticket pricing is also believed to have contributed to poor sales on the African continent, where African fans are being asked to pay the same prices as Europeans or Americans. Valcke said less than 40,000 tickets had been sold on the continent outside of South Africa.

    "We can definitely talk about a disappointment when we see the number of tickets sold in Africa," Valcke said.

    Local organizing committee chief executive Danny Jordaan requested fans buy more tickets, but also to be less noisy at stadiums and observe safety announcements and protocol.

    "The level of noise in the stadium. It is an important matter that when we make an announcement in the stadium everybody must be able to hear it," Jordaan said. "We ask for that particular discipline. We cannot have unmitigated noise levels in the midst of the singing of national anthems. These are serious issues that we need to address."

    Boisterous local fans are well-known for producing constant noise during games, helped by their plastic vuvuzela trumpets.

    FIFA denied suggestions last year at the Confederations Cup that it may ban the vuvuzelas -- which produce a loud humming noise -- at the World Cup.

    Re: World Cup Schedule

    Haha what the hell did FIFA think was going to happen? South Africans can't afford to pay $900 for a ticket, let alone $100 for many of them.

    On a side note, I can't wait till the USA can host the WC again, so we can have every game played in at least a 70,000 seat stadium. None of this 40,000 seat crap. We have so many immigrants, every game will be sold out.

    Re: World Cup Schedule

    Yeah, real :facepalm: that the two teams (U.S. and England) that have sold the most tickets for the WC are playing in a 40,000 seat stadium, and the only one with a damn track around it.

    England is gonna be a good game to watch. Didn't realize all the stadiums they had for it. Would suck if you had to follow your team all over the country from place to place for transportation.

    i guess based on which groups (and thus games) are more interesting, they place their talent accordingly. thats my only guess. also 2 games at once means they have to have more people 'on the clock' at once. (3 games per day to 4)
