FIFA's ticket-sale tactics for the World Cup soccer game @ SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on June 12th between the USA and Paraguay are worth a closer look.
My goal with this visualization is to give soccer fans a clear picture of what's happening with ticket inventory for that game so they can make an informed decision about attending.

What are on earth are they doing? Seems like they are completely mismanaging the ticket situation.
As someone who’s been signed up to every single lottery and logs in every time they “drop” new tix, there’s something pretty fucking shady going on with ticket sale algorithm.
But why do you say “pull”? They could’ve just been booked by buyers right?
