The capital getting snubbed is wild. That has to be a first in World Cup history. But that stadium is trash. Snyder is poison.

The plan was to use Baltimore for their stadium and DC for the fan events.

It was supposed to be a joint bid with M&T Bank Stadium, FIFA didn't like the way DC tried to ride the coattails of Baltimore

Happy for Kansas City and Seattle tho

Wet dream for American fans is USA playing in philly on July 4th which is the 250th birthday

cant wait for some tourist to end up in the wrong section of Philly

BTW expect a whole lot of policies to start popping up now to be able to clean certain areas out

That ish was just plain tacky, now had the Commanders have a new stadium in place by 2026 then yes DC would have won a bid.

Oh ok, I didn't know that. Still, it's crazy no game in the capital. Imagine London, Paris, Amsterdam, Moscow not hosting a game.

They have it nice and tailor made for decent little regional sections, East, West, South, Mexico

I'm curious to see who gets the final game. I'm guessing LA again.

LA is supposed to be at SoFi, I heard before it wasn't big enough for WC matches.

Apparently they want at least 45,000 seats so SoFi should be fine. It holds 70,000 plus.

I meant the field dimensions.

Didn't even know that WC was (mostly) in the US tbh

This is like having a WC with some games in Lisbon and others in Moscow. IIRC players were already complaining about having the Euro in various countries and about the WC in Russia ...but this isn't the first time the US hosts a WC so

I'm pissed off already because next WC is in the goddamn winter and the following will have us Euros watching games at crazy hours smh
