Tickets for Friday night

Post by swooper »

Does anyone know if I can rock up on Friday night with a GA season ticket - scan and get into standing room???
Ticketek tells me that 'General public allocation is exhausted' so no option of standing room.
Much appreciated :D

I got an SMS saying this game is fully ticketed and you need an upgrade. Same goes for next week.

I'm just gonna walk-up, there will be seats available
all this fully ticketed rubbish is to scare people into buying online at inflated prices on ticketek.

Apparently you can't just scan and get in. You need to upgrade to a reserved seat to actually get into the ground.

Agree. There are almost always seats. I was hoping for standing room ( its a long story...) but seems you can't even do that these days :o

For me personally, nothing beats being at the ground.
