I feel slightly humbled by this thread, for I was fortunate enough to get a seat.
Mind you, I camped out for a ticket in 97 and missed out. I think I would have probably given my left nut just for a standing room ticket then.
I sincerely hope the peeps in standing room don't feel cheated on the day.

Curb your enthusiasm - you’re a St.Kilda supporter!!

Ah yes... the spirit of 1980. I remember as a kid, you could also get the longer cans.karnaby wrote: Shame that you probably wont be able to go round the back of a catering area and borrow a milk crate tho. In the old days it was very easy with steel cans - guzzle a 6 pack and stand on the empties

I am an MCC member, but my family and mates are not full members.
So I am opting to stand with them rather than endure a long lonely stressful afternoon surrounded by strangers in the MCC.
The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

Yeah I would say they aren't bad for standing room.plugger66 wrote:That is a good area to stand but i hope there is few of you so you can save spots for each other. Also being in the AFL members gives you a slight chance to get a few vacant seats as some may not turn up especially if it rains as they may not be a supporter of either club.joffaboy wrote:M19 in the AFL members areaLeo.J wrote:Have you been alocated a bay saint66au?
There are 8 of us and I think we will plan to get there at about 9.00 so we can get the prime positions.
Then we can wonder off as we please with people there.
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Ive had some replies on the Hawks Forum..Im getting the vibe that perhaps 8.30 arrival might be a bit of overkill..will keep you informed
