They are not going ID checks. It's virtually impossible to check 50000 people before enter a stadium. They are going to do random checks. However no one should buy tickets apart from the legal way.

Go to google and type in fifa world cup germany 2006...it will give you the "officail website" than you can go to where it says tickets and buy from there. They may or may not have them posted. If not you can find the scheduals by googling it again.

I doubt very much that you will be able to get your favourite soccer player's email ID, and I think that's invading that person's privacy to do so, especially if it's to email the person to ask for an autograph.\nThe accepted way still is to write a letter to the person, via their management or team, and ask for the autograph, or any autographed photo. Tell them how much of a fan you are. Be polite.\nEmailing them via an email address they have not given you would be considered rude I expect, and improper.\nIf you can, ask them while at a game they are playing in. \nDon't expect a answer, or to get the autograph. Some people don't give them.

The draw is over.  If you check on ebay, the US Soccer federation has a pretty easy way to transfer tickets.  Here is the official FIFA site for ticket information:\nhttp://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/tickets/index.html

Its a ticket broker so its probably a lot more than you would pay on the streets.  Also, usually can get tickets just walking up to the stadium but there is no guarantee of course.

These guys are wrong.  The only way you can buy World Cup 2006 tickets is through FIFAworldcup.com, which is actually operates through yahoo, so iguess the first guy is kind of right.  As of right now, you can not just purchase a ticket through their website anymore.  They ran 3 ticket lotteries so far, and all I got was a pair of Ghana Cat-1 tickets.  You can also buy tickets on eBay.  The going price for tickets to the Ghana game, which is supposed to be the lesser of the three(Italy and Czech the other two and are obviously better, but Ghana may be the deciding game to determine whether or not USA will make it to the round of 16), is $800-$1000 for a pair of Category 3, also the worst seats.  So you can only imagine what tickets to the other games will cost.  I actually lost a bid on a single ticket to all three USA games for $1350, not bad, but it was only one ticket and I'm going with a buddy.\n\nAnother thing that is important to note is that to purchase a ticket, you will need a passport number.  Even if you do this through eBay, the original owner has to OK the transfer of tickets through FIFA and they will need all of your information.  Hopefully you thought of this and you should have if you are serious about leaving the country.\n\nOne last thing, beware of sellers on eBay.  There are people on there who tell you to contact them outside of eBay.  When you do this, they do not accept paypal.  If you don't know, eBay and PayPal have buyer protection up to a certain dollar amount and if you go this route he will most definitely be burned and will lose perhaps thousands of dollars.  There was one guy who was not selling through eBay, he was just listing and he kept pushing his dtaes back so he could lure in suckers to buy away from eBay.  He also ran this scam through 3 different eBay accounts, but when I contacted seller to determine legitimacy, it was the same guy.  BE CAREFUL.\n\nGood Luck and go USA

Hey there,\n\nI'd have to agree with MikBrik, you've got to expect to pay a nice premium, on the other hand on a positive note you do have the luxury of actually getting the seats you want If you're a die hard fan because many ticket brokers sell premium tickets too.\n\nI have never gotten tickets until an event was sold out it just happens. I don't know what or where I'll be in 4 months...lol...so I ended up looking through many of the sites online that have ticket inventory from hundreds of brokers and I found one to be a bit cheaper than the rest and to have the largest inventory. The site is called www.takentickets.com\n\n-Satch-\n\nP.S. You can also try craigslist, I'm sometimes scared buying it in person because of scams. Online ticket sites are usually reputable in delivering authentic tickets.

Go to the FIFA Worldcup website www.fifaworldcup.com and participate in the ticket lottery. FIFA sells the tickets in several stages. Stage 3 lottery starts today, December 12th 2006, at noon German time, and ends January 15th. You can apply for a certain number of tickets on the website. Good luck!

Extremely difficult, you might buy one from a reseller ( But they're illegal in Germany ).\n\nOr simply trade for something, but who would trade you a ticket?
