When Canada advanced further than anyone expected, one family decided the only response was to follow the team to Houston, no matter what it took to get there. The plan: resell tickets to a USA match in Seattle, lean on Mom’s credit card for the upfront cost, and hope it all balances out before Saturday’s round of sixteen game against Morocco.
This is less a soccer recap than a story about the lengths people go to for a memory worth keeping, told through a trip that includes a baseball game, a FIFA Fan Fest, and a fourteen-year-old who may remember this longer than anyone else involved. Listeners get the full play-by-play of the logistics, the financing, and the odds against Morocco.
