Watching Lionel Messi in action isn’t cheap. A Charlotte fan pointed out that entry to an Inter Miami game “cost more than Taylor Swift.”

Tickets to Swift’s “Eras Tour” have become a hot commodity for the pop star’s legion of loyal “Swifties.” Ticket prices have skyrocketed, with fans desperate to see their heroine on the biggest stage.

The same is true in sporting circles regarding Messi’s MLS tour. The Argentinian icon attracts high-profile guests to each of his appearances, and tickets rush as soon as it is confirmed that he will be on the pitch.

This was the case for the final match of Inter Miami’s 2023 campaign, which took place on Saturday in Charlotte. Supporters will therefore not have the chance to see Messi again on American soil until the dates of the friendly matches for the 2024 season have not been confirmed.

A supporter present at the Bank of America Stadium was keen to highlight the price he had to pay to attend Messi’s show, with a banner ” This costs me more than Taylor Swift » (It cost me more than Taylor Swift) among the 60,000 spectators of a thrilling match which saw the locals win 1-0 and punch their ticket to the post-season.
