I have one spare ticket (Category 1, the best seats in the stadium) to England vs. Algeria on 18 June, in Cape Town, and one spare ticket to England vs. Slovenia, 23 June in Port Elizabeth, also Category 1 seats (and next to me, woohoo). This is because my best buddy Steve, decided that a summer internship with Bain Consulting would be more productive than spending a month in South Africa with me in perpetual despair/hope following the England team. I’ll pass these on for what I paid for them, which is $450/ticket. I’ve never been to South Africa before, but I hear Cape Town is a lot of fun, and of course I plan to go on safari and see the national parks as well.

In my infinite wisdom, I also bought tickets (TST7s for those in the know, which means it follows the group winner all the way to the final) to all of North Korea’s matches (i.e. vs. Brazil, Ivory Coast and Portugal), as a way of guaranteeing my tickets to England vs. Brazil in the semis and the final itself. Therefore, I have for sale 2 tickets to all of North Korea’s group games, and then match 54 and match 57, which should be Brazil’s 2nd round game and their quarter-finals, likely against Holland (presuming both finish top of their groups). If anybody is interested in those, I’ll sell them at whatever the secondary market says their value is. Please pass this on!
