Inter Miami Fans Can Now Own a Piece of Messi’s Championship Turf

A unique opportunity for supporters to commemorate Inter Miami’s historic first MLS title with pieces of the Chase Stadium pitch.

  • Inter Miami is offering pieces of the turf from Chase Stadium, where the club recently won its first MLS Cup.
  • Options range from $50 keychains to a $750 “Ultra Box” containing grass and a commemorative ticket.
  • Barcelona previously offered similar memorabilia when Camp Nou underwent renovations, with even higher price points.

For fans wanting a tangible memento of Inter Miami’s championship run, the club is now selling pieces of the turf from Chase Stadium. The team secured their first MLS title at the stadium a few weeks ago, and supporters can now purchase a piece of that history.

What’s the most affordable way to snag a piece of the “holy turf”? According to the club’s website, five different options are available, starting at around $50 for an acrylic keychain. For those willing to spend more, the “Ultra Box” is priced at $750 and includes a piece of grass alongside a gold-engraved metal entry ticket displayed in an acrylic cube.

This isn’t the first time a soccer club has capitalized on stadium memorabilia. As reported by ProSoccerWire, FC Barcelona offered similar items when the Camp Nou was closed for renovation, and those prices were reportedly even steeper.

Did you know? Barcelona previously sold pieces of the Camp Nou turf when the stadium was under renovation, offering a similar opportunity for fans to own a piece of soccer history.

The move allows fans to physically connect with a momentous occasion in the club’s young history. Whether it’s a small keychain or a deluxe “Ultra Box,” these pieces of Chase Stadium offer a unique way to remember Messi and Inter Miami’s first MLS Cup victory.
