Bodo/Glimt fan trades five kilos of fish for ticket to Tottenham semi-final

How about this!

A Norwegian bartered five kilos of semi-dried fish for a ticket to Thursday’s semi-final clash between Bodo/Glimt and Tottenham Hotspur in the Arctic Circle.

Some 50,000 fans were vying for just 480 tickets to the second leg of Bodo/Glimt’s Europa League semi-final.

After missing out, Torbjorn Eide, a production manager at a fish farm in Senja, offered five kilos of boknafisk, a Norwegian delicacy worth nearly 2,500 Norwegian krone (£182), in exchange for a ticket.

"Fixture changed and honestly, not happy," he wrote on X.

"But it could be even worst (sic).

Nothing against Spurs."
