Via Sports Business Journal, the prices are down for the three games to be played on Monday.
The Brazil-Japan contest, to be played at 1:00 p.m. ET at Reliant Stadium in Houston, has a get-in price of $738 — down 54 percent in the past three days and 66 percent over the last week.
Germany vs. Paraguay, which starts at 4:30 p.m. ET at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, has a get-in price of only $487. That’s a 47-percent dip since Friday and a 69-percent drop since last Monday.
Tonight’s Netherlands-Morocco match in Monterrey (which may have the best backdrop of any stadium in the world) has a get-in price of $707. (First, you’d have to get to Mexico. Second, no tickets are currently available.)
