So, my understanding is that Foxboro, Massachusetts is threatening to cancel the FIFA Matches...

Unless Foxboro gets security money to protect the event and venue.

Knowing TSF and his administration, insist on cash, upfront!

Distribute them between Canada and Mexico. I know, but damn if this won't be a disaster with ICE and CBP threatening every visitor/family member and ultimately players/coaches heading this way from any Latin country or other. Hell, it doesn't even seem limited to Latina American countries, but Europe as well. Sorry, US athletes, but damn!

I’m not sure any security will actually be required. Who can afford to go to the games. I’m in Connecticut so I was thinking I’d be able to catch a game or two at Foxborough and in New York but the cheapest seats are nearly $1000 with a bunch of them being over $4000 … for a 90 minute soccer game. It’s insane.
