AFC Bournemouth will take on Real Madrid in a glamour friendly on Sunday 21st July. The thing is, they're charging £60 for a ticket.
Chairman Eddie Mitchell said: "We see the fixture as a well earned gift to our fans for their unwavering dedication to AFC Bournemouth, and also an opportunity for us to put the town of Bournemouth on the map.
"We are honoured to have been handpicked by Real Madrid to be their hosts in this landmark moment for the Football League, and we will do everything to ensure the game goes down in history."
Some football fans don't quite see it as the "gift" Mitchell speaks of.
Bournemouth are a joke for charging £55 for their Real tickets though. Hope they come back down for that

Anyone who attends Bournemouth vs Real Madrid at those prices should be named and shamed. Public humiliation is the only way.
