ticket sales at the grand final...shame

my young bloke went to the footy with his mates, i read it was $8.00 to get in, he had lunch before going & i gave him $25.00 so he'd be able to get a few drinks throughout the day, he has come home almost dehydrated as they charged a child $6.00 on top of the $8.00 for a ''ticket transaction'' i'm sorry but $6.00 on top of $8.00 for a child is totally unfair, especially when we are told it is affordable footy for the whole family, the girl told my son this is an sanfl decision but i think it'd be a ticketek decision, either way in my opinion it is wrong to pay anything let alone almost double what the cost of entry is

If his mummy and daddy lived in the eastern suburbs he could afford it on one days worth of pocket money!!!

i'm a single father & live in the western suburbs & haven't got a castle in the Eastern suburbs

by the way if the water he's drinking now doesn't work i'll be taking him to hospital & a day at the footy shouldn't end like that

Cricket season
FREE Admission to Sheffield Shield matches
A very generous guesture by the SACA
However you have to spend $5 + for the Northern Car park
Portions of car parking zones near the ground can be costly as well
This makes it harder me attending the cricket these days

The Northern carpark $5+ goes to the Adelaide Council and not the SACA ??????

As for what happened to Junior Bayman , that's unacceptable

well he ended up in hospital on a drip, is back to normal today

The Northern Parkland where the parking is, I thought was to be under the control of the SMA.

If so, you would think that they control the car parking too as part of the lease from Council.

That may not be right in the final wash up. But that's what I understood.

That area is about to get a bit of a makeover too I think.

You need to ring up the SANFL and harp on about what happened

That's not what you want from a day at the footy.

Give him my best wishes, bayman, please.

Yes it is and so was the generosity of the SA taxpayers clearing there $80 million debt.
