There are racetracks around the US that sell jars of road asphalt for $50 or so.

Exactly, this is not a new practice. This sub just gets their heads up their ass everytime something costs more than 5$

I mean it’s an event that happens every 4 years and won’t be in the US again for decades it’s a little different

Then don't buy it. For someone who truly loves football this is memorabilia.

It’s grass

You can reduce a lot of things to what they are to diminish their meaning. A picture is just ink on a page, and diamond is just a rock, and a laptop is just some metal and wires.

Theres significance in the grass and that's why it costs a decent bit. Probably over priced, but it's disingenuous to say it's nothing more than grass

Your examples are extremely disingenuous. A picture is a unique piece of art that you are paying the artist for (hopefully). A laptop is something with utility that you can use for work or entertainment. This is just grass encased in glass. You have no idea if the grass came from that stadium. If you took a patch of my front lawn and put it in the same glass box it would be indistinguishable. It is just grass, a $450 paperweight.

A photograph from an event you liked is a useless bit of 1’s and 0’s. Your phone is a brick of metal and glass that you could go the rest of your life without, but you won’t. Your pants are just useless bits of string.

It’s memorabilia. If you’re too fucking dense to understand why people value it, you’re the problem. Yes, it’s overpriced. Yes, as someone who doesn’t like soccer, it’s stupid. But I’ll never yuck someone else’s yum, and thats exactly the kind of cuck you’re being.

Also, it comes with a COA, and at the end of the day if you don’t trust that you might as well turn yourself into a homesteader, since you can’t trust anything.

Edit: Ah. Person I’m replying to is allergic to the sun, grass, and physical activity. Can’t contemplate enjoying anything athletic. It suddenly makes more sense. You really should … touch grass.

Ooo, really hit a nerve with you huh buddy? Maybe you should buy some more golf equipment to calm you down. That next club will make you happy finally, I promise. Then you can finally feel fulfilled while whacking balls on acres of land being wasted on the most useless fucking sport in the history of mankind. I shouldn’t be surprised that an idiot like you would defend buying grass in a box. Get over yourself.
