FIFA found another way to make extra money

The International Football Federation (FIFA) has begun selling pieces of grass from the field where the 2026 FIFA World Cup final will take place. The final match is scheduled for July 19 at the stadium in East Rutherford. Fans can purchase these memorabilia online for approximately €390 per piece, with delivery limited to the United States, the UK, and Europe. Each piece of grass is embedded in a high-quality acrylic block and comes with a USB key containing a certificate of authenticity. FIFA describes the items as unique collectibles commemorating one of the world’s largest sporting events. Additional versions of the memorabilia with extra features are available, with the most expensive option costing around €2,500.
