Crowd Friday

The street I lived on was a big ass hill lol. I had a love-hate relationship with it. Loved going down hated going up.

I had a few decent ones near me...I used to run back then and the 'square' of main roads around me were like doing cross country. Scary part is I was so fit back then it seemed 'easy'....These days I'd probably struggle to walk it.

I loved Waverley as a kid. Used to live a bmx bike ride away from the ground and saw a lot of games there. I think the first time was when my uncle took me to a Tigers v Pies game there in 1985.

Highlights for me
Pre game froffs at the Wheelers Hill hotel (too young then but that's what I would be doing now :D)
The Jells Rd pilgrimage (always better with a froff)
Awesome atmosphere when the crowd was over 30K
Sneaking into the members and exploring the corporate boxes, restaurants and tv commentary box. You could actually see and hear the commentators.

I always craved to see a big Tiger crowd there in the late 80s but we were putrid then. I had to wait until the 93 pre season GF against the druggos to see a monster crowd there.

I remember that night , had to sit in the aisles as there were no seats left

Because apparently moving the VFL to Waverley is enough to be given knighthood.

If the stadium had been completed and John Cain had extended the railroad it would have been awesome ,

And we used to play the ground really well
