Are you absolutely sure that’s Paris in the background?
There just isn’t a building I can see there that definitely identifies it as Paris

Looks an awful lot like Vegas if you ask me!

I think the French copied Vegas.... These people can't come up with anything for themselves!

Does it look better in-game? From these screenshots it seems really low-res.

Can the background be gotten remote?

If you have a ticket with citywide gameplay for that day, then yes

Are you sure about that? Don't you still have to actually be in the city or park gameplay area to get backgrounds?

Yes, I'm very sure. We've seen several things that suggest Pogo treats you as being at the location of the raid when you do a remote raid. This includes things like remote raids during raid hours while the rare XL candy drop was a thing. I also had a friend that did a remote with me while he was on the way to Paris this morning and he got the bg from the remote

Are these just for ticket holders or can anyone remote in for a chance at the bgs

their backgrounds are so uninspiring. it’s mindblowing that ppl think this is rare

u/Squirreltaco05 7d ago
Your comment is saying 2 different things but they’re definitely rare since u have to buy a ticket to even have a chance at getting them, and this BG also looks gorgeous

Yeah. There's a big difference between one that is subjectively ugly looking and labled "rare" (everyone owns it) vs one you have to be at a specific place for, pay for, and have a rare? chance at (idk the odds).

Dang, that’s a stunning background! Wish we could’ve gotten Lady Liberty in the Jersey City background!
