Friday Night Ticket Discussion

[balldman]

Watching AFL 360- 40k tickets sold for Fri,47k for Sat

 

[Swansujelly]

no worries

Hope you can find the section

Heading up for the game friday night, hoping the plane isn't delayed! Should be an awesome game; I don't think we'll have the run to roll over you and win by a lot, but I don't think we'll get opened up either, so should be a close match.

there mate, looks like we're in the same section we were in for the Carlton final 2010. Premiums baby!

Hey guys! Sorry for intruding. Stressful week, I know. Just have a question about the ground.
What's it like sitting in what would be the bronze section - top level, at least 10 rows back from the front. I rarely see this area populated when I see games on the TV. For those of you who also go to gamers at the MCG, do you think it's like sitting on the top deck there? I actually prefer watching games of football from the top deck, provided it's relatively close to the front row.
A few mates and I are thinking of driving up, and to cut costs we'd be getting bronze tickets. We'd much prefer top deck bronze on the wing than bottom deck bronze behind the goals. Have never been to ANZ, so would really appreciate some advice! Cheers guys, and good luck!

Level 6 is terrible, it's like watching ants (okay maybe slight bigger than ants) chase a dot around.

All my personal opinion of course

I'm not as against it as Grim. I've sat there a few times and it isn't TOO bad but you do miss a lot and it's hard distinguish between players.

Still well under what I paid

^^Better to get something then nothing for them I guess.

 

[Syd]

$210 back out of $269 paid, and the loss split in half.
So just $30 out of pocket.

Better seats in the ANZ Members section too.
Beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick I reckon.

They are family tickets. 2A + 2c or 1A + 3c ....yes?

 

[J_Moore]

They all just say "Family" on them, and I don't think they flash up a concession light. It used to be my go-to ticket purchase with a group of 4 people, but I didn't want to risk it for finals.

The Stand is set further back than the MCG, and it's definitely higher. You certainly feel further away

Personally I wouldn't sit there

I prefer it up there as opposed to along the fence at ground level. But yeah, some players are a struggle to make out up that high, but at least you get a good view of the field.

Just a red or green light when you scan them. SCG has some with a small screen that flashes up the ticket details, though.

 

[Syd]

2 x A and 2 x C

Funny thing is, they never denote which ones are adult and which ones are childs, so a fair few buy them and use them as 4 x A I'd wager.

Enter as 2 separate groups, if quizzed say "shit, left the kids at home and grabbed the wrong tickets!"

Side note, have never been quizzed.

What side will the Swans fans be on? Southern or Northern Stand?

 

[shadowfeet]

I believe swans fans are on the northern side. At least I hope, because that's where my seats are!

 

[Chinners100]

Anyone know how many tickets have been sold after today?

 

[grimlock]

57k

 

[TheTrademark]

I'm going and looking forward to a possible sold out crowd and an amazing atmosphere.

But, I sort of wish that this final didn't sell too many tickets as low crowd numbers could provide a reason for the Swans not to play finals at ANZ again after this stadium contract runs out... (yeah... thats not going to happen!)

It's definitely the Northern Stand, I got it confirmed.

 

[Swansujelly]

hmm, all this talk of what seat is where..go Premiums, guaranteed a good seat!

Unless it's my membership seat, then you're stuck behind a guard rail which is the most annoying thing ever.

 

[Naphula]

Bay 138-1. Isn't that normally the opposition fan area? Time to dust off the kidney-blocker 2000

In retrospect, these seats were ****ing awesome

 

[Rooster Cogburn]

Yeah agreed, we were in 139, and it was great to see everyone giving it to the pies supporters across the aisle.

I especially liked the part where they started streaming out early, absolutely copped it.
