Expensive tickets, empty seats and brutal heat: Copa América’s fan problem

Tournament soccer should be a party but exorbitant ticket prices, high temperatures and ill-considered venues have hurt the atmosphere

www.theguardian.com

It doesnt sound like a massive success. There is nothing as depressing as a half empty stadium..
The ticket prices look extraordinary as well.. Nobody is going to pay top dollar to watch Veneauela play Jamaica.
Also pl;aying in the heat of the day is not very responsible.. It sounds bleak.

The real point of the article is to cover up the truth as to why it draws so poorly, and that is because the sport is terribly boring...we do not like it, in any form under any conditions and circumstance... the push to popularize soccer in America has been going on since at least the seventies and nothing has worked, we hate it, plain and simple...you need to figure out how journalists and journalism really work tommy.

Well that is patently untrue. My own club played a "friendly" in front of 60000 retards last summer.There is an appetite for football in the US and by that measure this tourney has failed.

There is an appetite for football in the US

You only like sports that no one else plays. But there is an appetite for the game God gave to the world. You are just behind the curve.
