FIFA has always had a peculiar way to sell tickets to the World Cup. It never faced any major issues — until prices soared for the 2026 tournament.

New York Attorney General Letitia James and New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport sent FIFA subpoenas regarding their ticketing practices on Wednesday.

The attorneys general said they plan to probe “a range of issues that have arisen with FIFA’s ticketing process."

New Jersey's attorney general said FIFA turned ticket-buying "into a gauntlet of confusion, fake scarcity, and impossibly high prices."
