HOUSTON — Soccer fans, get ready. The world's biggest sporting event is heading to Houston. We're talking about the FIFA World Cup .

If you are a Verizon customer, you can score free tickets. Here's how it works. On Thursday, Verizon will drop tickets inside the My Verizon app. Each hour, the freebie tickets will be for games in a different city, so set your alarm for 2 p.m. to get in on a Houston game.

Tickets are limited -- first come, first served. If you missed that round, not to worry. There is another drop on October 9 at 1 p.m.

Also, on Tuesday, those who signed up for the World Cup ticket pre-sale will know if they scored. FIFA will be sending out emails to let you know if you were picked to buy early.

More than 4.5 million people signed up for that pre-sale.
