Why is Adelaide such a backwater?

[Gough]

I like Stellenbosch, probably because I've never seen it sober.

 

[Bombers 2003]

I've lived in Swan Hill, Reservoir, Richmond, Port Melbourne and now Newport so I think I can judge a shit hole when I see it.

i think thats about right

I got stuck in Ventersdorp for a night once. That was a pretty interesting place. It was like Nazi Germany had transported itself to the Northern Gauteng.

Lot of people refering to pre-94 as 'the good old days'. This left-wing moffie didn't talk to many people that night.

Seriously, my mate had to go there for some business thing. He said people in the "CBD" were the rudest, weirdest people he had met. He said two people were randomly barking at him, people spit on the street a lot more and there is no places to relax for a drink as everything closes by 9pm. I'm so glad I am in Sydney. In fact I'd be anywhere but Adelaide.

He said it was like someone had cut and paste Baghdad, Iraq into Australia.

The Iraqis don't have such a passionate hatred of Victorians.

Just an awful place. Half expected Terre Blanche to walk in.

yes ,i can see that.
you have to remember rural South Africa is quite different,even from backwood outback queensland.more like parts of WA

Adelaide isn't such a bad place to retire if you're a ****ing freak and you want to fit in.

 

[DVD Player]

Adelaide is just like any other Mainland Australian city... People don't spit on the streets and there are countless places to sit down and relax, as well as shop at after 9pm. Ok, their water is rubbish and they have a few extra murders here and there, but lets be honest, who doesn't enjoy the odd homicide case? I know I certainly do. It shakes it up a little, and when you live in Adelaide, and people are driven to the edge of suicide due to the large scale boredom that sweeps through the city like the Great Depression, the occasional death isn't all that bad. Brilliant place to live, I'm going to go live there.

Went there for the Gunners concert the other week, mates here bagged the joint before i left telling me how shit it was, got to admit i didnt mind it, people are ultra freindly, easy to find your way around and got some pretty good shops oh and the food is cheap.

Not really a bay style post just honest opnion.

 

[powermacs]

Spit your game, talk your shit,grab your gat, call your cliques

I've never had a real problem with Adelaide, was knocking off a fantastic 21 year old with dream kagunga's over there for a while when I was 30 (ah, ta be tirty agahn me hearties), and have been there many times for business and stuff... probably over 50 times actually...

But you open your mouth and say... "Foooootttyyyy" and before you finish the word you are beset upon by the biggest rush of ****wits you could imagine....

So the formulae is... go for roots, wine, beaches and fun... don't go for footy

Glad to be of assistance

That's no way to talk about your wife dude.

Have been to most of the football grounds for away games - and have to say Aami is the only place I have genuinely worried for my familiy and my safety. Just full of stinking overweight ferals who feel the need to harass and physically threaten opposition supporters.

I'd have to say the exact same for your ice park down at Geelong, when the two guys that harassed the Adelaide Cheer Squad all game in 2009 are escorted out by police I think that says it all.

Plenty of overweight ferals at any game on any given day, they arent just confimed to AAMI.

No one should have to worry about their safety to enjoy a football match.

(This was a crows game btw - can't comment on Port supporters but cann't imagine they are much better)

When they get so threatening over a football game you can imagine why it's still known as the "City of corpses/Murder capital"

Must say im really suprised at that!!
The only time at any footy game i have felt that way is in Melb and only against Collingwood... Been to every other ground, just about every other teams games and been fine... Bar Collingwood... But lets face it there are always ******** supporters no matter what club!

 

[TRAWP]

A Port fan complaining about Collingwood fans?
Sounds like one big family reunion to me.

He said, he said, he said.

Come and experience it yourself or STFU
