The high cost of tickets for the upcoming 2010 World Cup, have a contest only for millionaires, but many millionaires do not want to attend for the insecurity that prevails in that region.
In many European countries from ticket sales has been far below expectations. In Germany they have bought little more than six thousand entries of the 21 thousand available by the federation of that country.
The former footballer Franz Beckenbauer, criticized the high price of tickets for the World Cup, thus explaining the low sales of package tours, which would be also linked to security.
"Those who provided not only hesitate to travel there for safety, but also because the tickets are tooexpensive," the "Kaiser".
"What normal person can spend between 5,000 and 6,000 euros for just one week?" Beckenbauer questioned.
The cheapest ticket for the opening match, South Africa, Mexico, June 11, costs 140 euros, according to the website of FIFA. The most expensive for the final July 11 amounts to 630 euros, while for a party of the first round is on the order of 56 euros.
