Markwayne Mullin: “90% of the tickets are already sold out [for the games].”

“So that's even including the Iranian soccer team that's coming in, 8% of their tickets are for their fans. Most countries are bringing their own individuals in. That's why we're seeing 5 to 7 million visitors coming in. 90% of the tickets are already sold out [for the games]. That means for all 78 games, 90% is sold. And the only reason why the other 10% isn't is because they're slowly rolling them out. So the other 10% will be slowly rolled out.” (19:29–19:33)
