BREAKING NEWS – Rio De Janeiro, Brazil – World Cup fever is fun to participate in, but for fans that actually wanted to attend the game, the seats didn’t come cheap. Ticket prices for the championship game between Argentina and Germany in Maracana Stadium in Brazil went as high as $20,000. On eBay, tickets were priced from around $3,000 to $18,000. Viagogo, a global market for online ticket re-sales, had tickets listed from around $5,000 to $20,000. A slick innovative businessman in Brazil made a fortune selling tickets in front of the stadium, not to the game, but for seats on a Greyhound bus headed for the U.S. /Mexican border.
