Why do so many people assume just cause someone is asking for help getting tickets that they have just jumped on the Geelong band wagon?

There are plenty of reasons why im not a member and im sure thats the same as a lot of people.. MEH

Sheesh.. Ive even been kissed on the cheek by Micheal Mansfield when i was 10... :rolleyes::p LOL

take heart mate, there will be seats available when the public sales commence wednesday. You may have to sit up in level 3 but it is better than nothing.

Yeah i guess.. Wouldnt mind having totally kick arse seats or even just kick arse.. But no harm in asking aye :)
It's not so much that people think you're on the bandwagon - it's more that they think you're cheap. For what you'll end up paying for a preliminary final ticket in September you could have bought a country or concession ticket in February. I don't know about Geelong but Collingwood even had an installment system where you could pay over time.

It's a bit like being stuck in heavy traffic - those people who catch up to you by sneaking up the emergency lanes, sure they piss you off but you'll let one in because you're a nice guy but you'll be darned if you'll let another guy in.

Nobody likes queue jumpers - even Howard won an election on that platform. Sorry - but that's life!

Thanks BDP. I'n no bandwagoner, I've got my country social club membership knowing full well I would only see maybe one or two games this year.
I agree - good comments. Suprising given the team you support to read something articulate, but good on ya!
great use of a rather obscure analogy.........

Re: Tickets??

Can anyone tell me if they reckon it will be easy to get tickets tomorrow to general public off the net? :)

Who knows with the Internet (who knows with Ticketmaster period). A few people on here encountered major problems with the internet on Monday. Maybe it's calmed down a bit, but I would get them in person, If you can.
