News Eithad car park

[hotham]

According to 3AW, each driver will need to scan their Etihad car park ticket to exit car park. Meaning the boom gates will only let one car out at a time. Vic roads want to clear congestion on the roads around the ground. I've never heard of anything so crazy. Long delays, carbon monoxide poisoning and people losing their tempers.

The world has gone friggen mad, no common sense is applied to anything these days.

No this is "Common" Sense. There are a plethora of *******s out there my friends. :stern look

At least we can all stay in the stadium and stare out throught the open roof until the traffic eases.

Kudos to anyone who can afford to park at Etihad's carpark.

It costs an arm and a leg, and you wait forever to exit once the game is finished regardless of ticket scanning. So many more cheaper alternatives close to the ground that don't cost a fortune AND you drive straight out.

 

[Ohhh Errol]

just had a win = good, though trapped in car park can't pick up the post match = slightly irate.

Just had a loss=bad, trapped in underground car park hoping vic roads representative tries to squeeze between your bumper and the car in front so you can 'accidentally' 'release the handbrake and paralyze the * for causing this unbearable suffering = road rage and accidents regardless.

let's hope for more wins than losses then ey.

People actually park at Etihad!?

 

[Rockstar6]

When I drive to the footy, I park on Flinders St. Only problem is you have to pay $15 in coins (except 5c pieces) or pull out the credit card and cop a surcharge!

'Free' parking with a medallion club membership.

 

[numchuks]

Parking for free in West Melbourne superior master race checking in

 

[Greater Gattsby]

$7 flat rate parking within 800m of ground. People waste money too much.

 

[Dirty_11]

At least you can listen to the radio while waiting to exit....oh hang on.

 

[Gasometer]

Oh toughen the * up all of you.

It could be worse...as it was in this epic thread by yours truly...

My work carpark's a five minute walk from the ground thankfully. If it wasn't I reckon I'd catch the train in.

Southern Corss. $20 flat fee and always plenty of room.

....with our umbrellas up.

 

[KangaRooster]

Sign up for a Crown Signature Club card and get free parking, buy a beer/coffee on your way through and it keeps it current and then it's a 5-10 minute walk. Lot of nice birds on weekends too.

You should try and get out of ANZ Stadium, its like a 12 storey concrete carpark, and its the only one there. You have to leave at 3/4 time just to get home at a reasonable hour.

Cunnover place to get out of though, especially when the crowd's 40k+

Park for free in and around the township of the mighty Royal Blue and White Football Club and walk.

Works very well for me.

 

[Luke72]

There's one on Little Lonsdale between King and William Streets that's more reasonable (I can't remember the exact fee). I usually get PT as I am partial to a beer or three at the game

Yeah I usually take PT too and generally have to be dragged to the train because of too much to drink

 

[LT Smash]

Free parking beneath the 50' Jack Ziebell statue at E-gate.
