Seating - Grand Final!

[The Falcon Strike]

Talking of seating - I was sitting about 10-15m from Eddie McGuire on Friday night - and one thing struck me - his clothes.

There i was sitting with 4 layers on - including a duffle coat i acquired in London - and I was freezing.

But there was Ed - sitting in the open with a suit and tie - unbelieveable.

Was also very accommodating to the Magpie faithful

Always has always will wear a suit anywhere anytime.

It's all good, I highly doubt I'd be in an aisle of St.Kilda fans, and if I don't like my seat, I go stand.

As far as I can tell, I'm close enough that Milne will actually hear my abuse.

Plus, if we win, you get to see the players so close up it isn't funny on their lap of honour.

That's why I was stoked with my seats in row C in M16, I'm only going to be 3 rows from the players when they do the lap of honour, and yes, Milne will be able to hear me too.

M34 row DD.

We should have organised a mass ticket collection at Geelong somewhere.

Good to know there will be at least 4 other pies supporters near us. this is the St Shit cheer squad end...hope we're not surrounded by ferral sainters

I thought i would get a level 4 seat with a standard ticket but when I went to pick it up they gave me M33 rows S, I couldnt believe it. I am pumped now for the big game.

 

[P0508]

Log on this morning and got myself tickets m21 row s... Pumped and can't wait till Saturday.

 

[Kazy]

Just picked up my ticket from ticketek today .....sitting 18 seats away from where i sat Friday night .

Q29 , Row G , Seat 8

anyone else sitting near there ?

Not me but my friend. Exactly like you, but Row K - trust me you'll see/hear her!!

I'm in Q32 row M - thanks for the great seats pies...have loved being a Legends member for 7 years...really pays off! Hope those that upgraded to legends membership a month ago got better seats than me

Anyway I should't complain....at least i'll be there!!!

It shouldn't be too bad. On friday we had M7 & apart from the cheer squad there wasn't nearly as many cats as pies. Brothers in arms!

same boat here mate. as i posted earlier in this thread i was almost resigned to getting tickets in the nosebleeds. i did know that M33 was a standard bay tho so held out some hope. was watching nervously as my tickets were printed and was absolutely stoked when i made out row KK in M33. very close to where i sit at away games, great view, undercover and atmosphere in there is going to be absolutely electric esp if the unofficial cheer squad are standing nearby as they usually do. you hear the noise they make during the h&a season so i can only imagine what they will be like on the big day

That's great for you..but I can't understand how a standard ticket is M33 and Prime is Q....doesn't make sense to me!?!?

 

[cobbly]

M54 row C, very happy with that.

Yer thats fair enough, I was suprised as well but for some reason m33 is a standard bay, I dont understand that.

 

[Art Corvelay]

M56, Row A.

I'm M56, Row F. Can't work out why these are classed as "restricted" viewing seats - any ideas??

 

[ghostfacekillah]

Apologies if i'm not seeing the 'tickets needed' thread. But Pies Social Club member 5 years running. Missed the ballot. Desperate for a ticket and willing to pay good money. Yeah add me to the list.

Anyone got any tips?

I love the unofficial cheersquad, sometimes I stand with them,they are great. Perfict seats becuase we get to sit around Collingwood fans and the atmposhere will be awsome. I cant wait now.

yeah they classify one bay behind the goals at each end as standard for the respective cheer squads and club members. saints have M3 at the other end. the difference in price is massive - we are in row KK M33 in 'standard' seating and have paid $161 per ticket. I understand from what i can gather that from about row AA upwards in both M32 and 34 are considered 'premium' seats and therefore cost $270. so there will be people literally a few metres from us sitting in the same row but next bay along who will have paid $109 more than us for the privilege

just quietly has anyopne else noticed from the grand final seating map how most of the ground now is classified preium or prime and there is really sweet FA standard seating? very sly move from the afl to increase revenue from seating. compare it to a map of the ground from even just 2 or 3 years ago and i reckon there was alot more standard seating from memory

The angle of the goalposts at the Punt Road end perhaps?

That's what figured

The angle of the goalposts at the Punt Road end perhaps?

If that's the "restriction" then reckon I'll manage
