Episode description
The 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup is coming to Seattle.
The city now has less than a year before it welcomes hundreds of thousands of visitors.
There’s plenty of time for the city to meet some of its goals, before the players try to score theirs.
Will it be a win-win for the city?
Seattle Now Sports Correspondent Vaughan Jones is here with a preview of what’s to come.
