DONE (All in Australia, never travelled overseas)
- Adelaide Oval (Days 1-4 Australia vs India test match 2011/2012) [Glad I did this BEFORE the redevelopment and sat on the hill]
- Football Park, West Lakes Adelaide (Adelaide vs Bulldogs 2012) [even been on the turf to help with the Bulldog banner]
- Melbourne Cricket Ground (2011 Grand Final, 2010 Preliminary Final ST.K vs DOGS, 1-2 Days of at least 10 Boxing Day Test Matches, the Tsunami Relief ODI, Australia vs India ODI 2004)
- Docklands (AFL only)
- Princes Park (Carlton vs Footscray 1990 ANZAC Day)
- Whitten Oval (twice in 1989)
- Windy Hill (EDFL Footy, the old man used to play for West Coburg)
- Sydney Cricket Ground (Sydney vs Dogs 2012) [Also helped with banner this day, it got progressively worse!]
- Parramatta Stadium (NRL, Parramatta vs Cronulla 2012) [If you are going to put a replay screen at the top of the old mound to the left of screen, at least try not to block it with advertising signs].
- Manuka Oval (Sydney vs Dogs 2011) [It WAS 0 degrees as I boarded the plane to Canberra in Brisbane....it was about 5 by the time I landed!]
- The Gabba (At least 5 Brisbane vs Bulldogs matches, multiple days of Test Cricket in the last 4 seasons, South Africa vs New Zealand ODI 1993/1994) [Again got to go the the ground before it became one big bowl but after the dog track was demolished, it rained during the ODI I saw there so the old man and I took shelter under the Clem Jones Stand!]
- Carrara (Twice, once for GC vs Dogs 2011, the other for GC vs Freo 2012)
- Marrara Oval, Darwin (1995/1996 NTFL GF St.Marys vs Southern Districts, also 2 AFL games) [The NTFL GF I went to was the first that Districts made, but Saints won the flag AGAIN]
- The WACA (Day 1 2012/2013 test vs South Africa) [YES I WAS ONE OF THOSE THAT THOUGHT R.T.PONTING WAS BATTING INSTEAD OF N.LYON]
- Subiaco Oval (WC vs Dogs 2011) [Done by 21 goals, nuff said]


WILL GET TO SEE
- Robina Stadium [Home of GC Titans, a 10km Fun Run is scheduled to start and finish from there in May]
- Course for Sydney's City2Surf [Will be entering this year, ambition since last year when started half serious running]


SEEN BUT NEVER ENTERED
- Victoria Park
- Glenferrie Oval
- Punt Road Oval
- Kardinia Park (had a great chance to take pics when I was down there last November.....but hooked it to Maccas and empty inner city Timezone instead!)
- Arden Street
- Lang Park (One Day I'll find my way to an origin)
- Perth Arena (If I wasn't crapping myself over missing a plane home after the day at the WACA I would have gone in to see the Wildcats play Sydney in the NBL)
- Perth Entertainment Centre (Former Home of the Wildcats, since demolished)
- The Rec, Melbourne (AKA The Channel 7 reporter's Ground...Amy Parks!)
- Moorabbin
- Pat Rafter Arena (Site of the Brisbane ATP/WTA Event 2 weeks ago, GC Train runs past it. Should have gone to Davis Cup tie last year en-route to Adelaide but wasn't thinking!)
- Festival Hall, Melbourne (The House of Stoush, is that ever used for Boxing anymore?)
- Fremantle Oval (Soon to be FORMER training base for Fremantle FC)
- Flemington (Walked past there after one of the Whitten Oval visits)
- Gloucester Park (Perth Harness track across road from WACA)
- Calder Park Thunderdome/Raceway (Planes often fly over, looks run down big time)
- Rushton Park, Mandurah (Home of Fremantle's virtual reserves team, Peel Thunder)
- Sydney Entertainment Centre (AKA The Kingdome)


DOESN'T REALLY COUNT.....
- Melbourne Park (A GF breakfast included in the 2011 package from the Doggies included a crappy breakfast at the function centre, but had a great view of the external concourse of Rod Laver Arena AND Margaret Court Arena)
- Gold Coast Convention Centre (Former home of the now defunct Gold Coast Blaze NBL team, saw the 2012 Draft from the venue, trying not to hook up with random schoolies on the bus from Nerang Station)
- Darwin Greyhound Track (Winnellie Park, does host TAB Greyhound racing on TattsBet Friday Nights but NOT a major venue)
- Richardson Park, Darwin (Hosted 2 NRL Games in 1990's, did tackle stats for a local reserves team in 1997)
- RNA Showground, Brisbane (Home of Baseball's Brisbane Bandits and past home for Test Cricket, finish venue of Bridge2Brisbane run)



TO DO LIST FOR AUSTRALIAN VENUES
- Kardinia Park
- York Park
- Bellerive Oval (Footy OR Cricket)
- Olympic Stadium, Sydney (For rectangular sport rather than for AFL)
- Sydney Showground
- Leichhardt Oval (May not happen if the Government gets its way, would only consider if Sunday Afternoon of course)
- Cazaly's Stadium Cairns (Had half a chance to go there for a Queensland Country Under 18 trial in 2001, decided to to bother or ask about training at the time and spent holidays in Melbourne instead)
- The Rec, Melbourne (Probably for a Victory game rather than a Storm game)
- Melbourne Park (Ground pass for an early day of the Australian Open)
- Mount Panorama, Bathurst (Don't think I'll be camping though, leave that to the REAL die-hards)



TO DO LIST FOR OVERSEAS VENUES (By no means a complete list)
- Eden Park, Auckland (Bledisloe Cup Test)
- Basin Reserve, Wellington (Test Cricket)
- ANY Indian Cricket Venue (Eden Gardens, Wankhede Stadium, doesn't matter. Has to be a test match though, don't think I could handle the crush for a 20 or 50 over game)
- St.Mary's Stadium, Southampton
- The other 91 English football league venues in a single year (REAL PIPE DREAM, unlikely to happen)
- Lord's
- Millennium Stadium, Cardiff (Rugby Test)
- Any of the ALPINE stages of Le Tour (more dramatic than those in the Pyrenees IMO)
- Singapore GP Track (body clock may handle it and F1 at night seems to work there better than in Abu Dhabi)
- Indianapolis Motor Speedway (An Aussie may well win the Indy 500 before Mark Webber wins the F1 title)
- Newlands, Cape Town (Cricket)
- Madison Square Garden (Knicks Game)
- Wrigley Field (Cubs Game)
- Lambeau Field (Packers Game, even though I'm a Dolphin fan)
- Maracana Stadium, Rio de Janeiro
- Sabina Park, Kingston Jamaica (Cricket of course)
- Course for the London, Boston and New York Marathon (2016 and beyond perhaps?????)

I haven't done to much travelling but I do plan on doing so once I'm older and finish schooling. As I haven't even left Australia, here is my very average list of stadiums I've been to:

AAMI Stadium
Adelaide Oval
MCG
Telstra Dome (I haven't been to Etihad Stadium )
SCG
Skilled Park
Gabba

Stadiums I wish to visit so far:

Lord's
Old Trafford
Cape Town
Eden Gardens
Yankee Stadium

They have kind of ruined Newlands, as much as it's hard to ruin a ground with a backdrop like that. 20 years ago it was a beautiful oval with a lovely old pavilion and plenty of grassed areas, now it's a stadium with a good view.

Never got to Devonport Oval or the TCA ground, and West Park has only come into use for ListA well after I left Tassie.

Never got to Devonport Oval or the TCA ground, and West Park has only come into use for ListA well after I left Tassie.

Pity. Devonport was always a great venue. Its Been let go a bit I'm afraid. God knows why they put cricket at Burnie in front of Devonport.
The old TCA ground is really in a poor condition these days. Mind you, even at its best it was pretty poor.
The thing is that they've all hosted some quality sports events over the years.
The LCC has recently spent a mill$ or so developing a drop in wicket for Aurora. I guess Devonport will miss out again,
& put pressure on whether Burnie get any more cricket. The West Park wicket has been very ordinary for ODD.
