FIFA has tried to downplay allegations of corruption leveled against it by U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch, but the Mob Museum in Las Vegas isn't buying it.
The museum has annouced the opening of a FIFA exhibit, called "The Beautiful Game Turns Ugly," which will be permanently on display in the museum.
“This exhibit is ripped right from today’s headlines about the globe’s most popular sport,” said Jonathan Ullman, the museum's executive director, in a press release. “To our growing number of visitors from places like the United Kingdom, Mexico, Brazil and Italy, the FIFA scandal provides an especially resonant example of the different shapes organized crime can take.”
The exhibit is set to open Sept. 1.
