Surprising My Mom With World Cup Tickets


Occurred on June 1, 2026 / Scotch Plains, New Jersey, USA

Info from Licensor: "I started a World Cup Series as a challenge to earn a 2026 World Cup Final ticket completely from scratch, using only money I make from social media. It ties my soccer background — the sport that defined me from ages 5 to 18 — to my bigger mission of building real financial freedom, made even more personal by the Final being in my home state at MetLife. Documenting the journey started pulling in real brand attention. Which is when Verizon's Instagram gifted me two tickets to the World Cup round of 16. There wasn't even a second thought on who I would give the extra ticket to. My #1 supporter on and off the pitch... my mom! Credit: @_adamweiner_"
