President Donald Trump recently made some startling comments about football games, which definitely shocked many analysts. The POTUS appeared on the ‘Full Measure With Sharyl Attkisson’ where he was asked about the recent hike in ticket prices.
Trump called out the league for hiking up the prices and even said that the teams could easily live with making less money by allowing more tickets to be sold. However, not everyone agreed with the POTUS, with Andrew Marchand calling out his remarks about the hike in prices.
“You have people that live for Sunday. They live. They can’t think about anything else. And then all of a sudden they’re going to have to pay $1,000 a game. It’s crazy, so I’m not happy about it. I don’t like it.” President Donald Trump said.

“The NFL doesn’t cost $1K per game, as President Trump stated in this interview. While there is no real per game number, 87 percent of its games are on broadcast, over-the-air TV.”Andrew Marchand said.

With this, it looks like the war is back on and that strikes from both sides might soon take place. Tehran is clearly not ready to back down any time soon and is still sticking to their stance of wanting all the rights to the Strait of Hormuz and also wanting to immensely charge all the ships that pass through.
With the ongoing war creating fuel issues for different nations, several countries have already issued protocols for their citizens to save more fuel. In fact, these guidelines are even being compared to what the world saw going on during the COVID-19 pandemic.
