The FIFA World Cup (Federation Internationale de Football Association) is basically the Super Bowl of soccer. Teams from all over the world travel to compete in competitions to see who is the best. Tickets are very valuable and in high demand. This year the World Cup is being held in various locations throughout Germany. Good Luck... =)

I think this is an absolutely ridiculous proposition you have made. The beautiful game that is soccer will be reduced to nothing more than a pathetic farce. Let me explain why.\n\nEven though the spectators might be paying to be substituted on, there is no guarantee that they are playing for the side they are on. Since the opposition coach is choosing who goes on, he could very well choose a fan who is on his side. This fan would simply need to score own goals.\n\nAlso, what about the OTHER spectators, the tens of thousands of others who paid to watch a decent game. Who would want to watch just about any other Tom, Dick or Harry playing??\n\nFinally, let's say the match is a World Cup match. Wouldn't it be ridiculous if the spectator who joins the match isn't of the same nationality as the team?\n\nThere are millions more reasons to reject your absurd idea, security issues being one of them, but I suppose discerning readers and like-minded soccer fans will know from a glance that you are a somewhat odd man.

I love your question. I've asked myself this ? too. As I thought about it I came with another ?. What other game on earth could reunite all the world together in one country every 4 years other than the World Cup? when they do It every 4 years it becomes a dream for everyone in the world to be there. And it's where you can see the best of a player. \nThat's why it's a must for me to be there in 2010. That's my dream

Unluckily for me, i am from Africa, Nigeria to be precise and i didn't get the opportunity to buy a single ticket. But i am not worried, it is coming to Africa in 2010 in South Africa, and that would be my opportunity to see the world cup live. Enjoy the competition, and the thrill, maybe send me a live picture if you get to take one.

You asked what is so exiting about 22 players kicking a football? Well I don't know what is exiting about it but I know what is EXCITING ie its a chance for the whole nation to unite and be happy to support their country in the World Cup, its not everyday its only once every four years and its in the summer so you can enjoy watching loads of international footie in the sunshine with a few drinks and have a barbecue.  \n\nI am not sure who's skin is on the football except some fat cow's who can spare it.

Normally, a country that wants to be a host would announce it to FIFA. FIFA then would select a country from all the candidate countries. The selection is made years in advance (8 years I think) so that a country can prepare for the tournament.

The World Cup is and will always be the biggest sporting event in the world. Every country in the world competes and dreams of being crowned the champions of the greatest sport in the history of sport. The best players in the world square off agaisnt team mates and friends, so it is not solely about the competition. It is about the entire world coming together to watch and participate in a common like. It is about passion and emotion even for those thousands of miles away. It is about nationalism, when a country becomes one in support for their team. To me, the world cup isnt even about the football (even though thats an amazing part of it) but its about the people who love the sport so much that the entire world unites together for a whole month and can forget about all their problems and instead focus on the  excitement and pure skill that is football.

You're asking the question in the wrong place. Who would possibly know the phone number to Thierry Henry? Not unless some hackers decide to hack his cell phone number and sell it on the internet...lol Why don't you get yourself a chance to go to a tournament where the soccer star plays and then ask him for an autograph?

You must look at the site: www.fifaworldcup.com Go to Tickets-ticket Shop-Order tickets now- Single Tickets. They are the original prices and the cheapest. They are the official sponsors and occasionally offer tickets. Although most of the matches offered are games most people are uninterested in. It is difficult to know when tickets become availiable. More information on the site. Good Luck!

Hmm...it's interesting but by that logic, we wouldn't need to spend 30 days on a world cup. Why don't we just hand Brazil (or a supposed winner) instead of watching teams slug it out for the big prize!? :)
