Does anyone here attend the Pura Cup? If so how many days and why?
I've only been sporadically in the past. Working in the CBD now so hopefully I can get there more often.

I go often to see the Vics play, but they're at Junction Oval atm which is a total bitch for me to get to so I've been unable to go.

It depends on many factors, such as when is it on, am I free, whats the weather like, can I be ********ed getting out of bed
I usually go to One Dayers at the MCG, this year who knows as they are all on TV
As for the Pura Cup, I will probably attend a couple of them, some games I might go to 1-2 days, really depends on the state of the game. I will try and attend day 1 where possible, and after that it depends on the game, what are we doing, will it be entertaining that day etc

Yes, go to at least one or two days of a game all depends on how the game is panning out.
I try to go to a day of most games when I can, same with the one dayers although the 9:30 starts aren't my favourite
Why? Because there's nothing better to do ;)

Getting up at 8am myself just to get ready to get to them ain't my favourite time of week - especially considering I don't usually get up for another six hours on most Saturdays. :p
I love the longer version of the game, but prefer to attend ING Cup matches.

Good on ya, RBF- when I was in Oz, doing the degree, was there every day for the Shield comp....best domestic comp going. Used to be the joke around the department- all my mates knew I was there- a couple would roick up, especially if Warnie or the NSW guys were playing....great action at the mighty Gabba!!! Unlike eddie, I was out of bed in time...

Same here, I would rather go to Punt Road
No. Last one I attended was an old Sheffield Shield match at the TCA Ground back in 1982.

Well I support QLD so getting to thier games is difficult. I have flown up to the Gabba for a day or so (work commitments have a big say) and try to see them when they are in Sydney.
If I had the time, I would watch all 5 days.

Depending on work committments, I try to get to 2 out of the 4 days at least. Attend all ING matches as well.

probably only saw 2 days of the longer stuff last year. In the uni hoidays, which go forever, I will probably try and see a few more matches.
