WTF? |
That's so true Dave. I've always wondered why they do that. It's pointless and almost idiotic to do so if nothing is going on.  |
Does it make them Look Big or Something?

Well if you are in the MCC then I have no sympathy. Toorak types driving Range Rovers. Pies fans are traditionally working class and they hate us. Really you should surrender your membership there and come back to the Ponsford Stand.

I've sat in the MCC heaps of times in previous years, it's the best!

That may be so (this year) but I have been to many games since becoming a member in the early 80s right up to last year.
I have never, ever had a problem, both here in VIC & interstate.
That may be because I minded my own business, I listened to my radio & never got involved in what other people did or didn't do around me, plus I never drank at the footy either.

I stood up in M30 for the first half and M32 in the second half.
The difference was there was 2 yellow coats standing watching M32.

Lower level Ponny Stand at every game the Yellow Coat Meerkats are watching.
If you watch they actually aren't watching anything at all , except they are themselves more often than not blocking the patrons access to the stairwells and asiles.
Then after every goal they march down the asiles in two's with one stoping halfway down and the other continuing down to the fence , looks over the fence looks left looks right , turns around meets up with his mate halfway up the asile , I think that it is some sort of mating ritual.
Only seems to involve the Male Yellow Coat Meerkats , very rarely any Female Yellow Coat Meerkats , go figure ?

i agree. they are probably instructed to say it loud enough so that you can hear it too.
Unless there is actually an instance of someone being thrown out or personally persecuted unfairly (I'm sure there are examples of this), i say let's move on.

you sound boring.
In 2003, my brother in law from brisbane got me and my dad two tickets right in the middle of 5,000 brissy fans. First thing my dad shouts as we take our seats.
We are going to show you what a real football team is today. Brisbane are a bunch of pretenders!!!!!
there may have been some expletives thrown in there for good measure.
That day didnt go so well for us.

SAT NIGHT MCG M55(WCE)/56(CFC)
First Qtr
Multiple goals kicked by the AWAY team involved much targeted abuse and derision directed from a bay (containing mainly adult AWAY supporters) towards a vocal but diverse bay of HOME fans. The HOME group being a HOME group are made up of young families, 20 & 30 & 40 something groups of guys and every other combo. A sprinkling of shall we say "Vocal" supporters behaving as normal and directing their angst at the umpires.
The AWAY group instead will mark every success in their team's play by turning to their right and displaying an apparent lack of fingers - generally ones and twos accompanied by certain vocal directions to the HOME team describing and comparing them to various matter that is normally dealt with by sewerage systems. Additional instructions were also centred around origins of birth and the like.
2nd/3rd Qtrs
The AWAY team supporters continued to display concern for the occupants of the adjoining bay at all opportunities of goals and umpiring decisions. One in particular who happened to be female, had become quite distraught and was continually looking at the HOME bay.
As the game ebbed and flowed unfortunately so did the behaviour described above. Due to liquor licencing laws and the derided mid-strength beer sales; a particular high-alcohol beverage was consumed as preference, by many in the AWAY bay.
4th Qtr
The game continued to be a closely fought contest and may in the AWAY bay became increasingly frustrated that their efforts were for nought.
Late 4th Qtr
A heavily tattooed player for the HOME side dropped a mark deep in his attacking pocket. He recovered that ball and in a motion, kicked that ball between the two largest goal posts.
This action stirred the afore-mentioned AWAY supporter to an action that is becoming much rarer this side of the Nullabor. She took it upon herself to share the high-alcohol beverage she was consuming, minus the cup with the group immediately in front of my position. This was accompanied with many expletives and she ran up the stairs.
A wet HOME supporter ran after her to thank her for sharing her beverage but was unable to catch her. Arriving back to see the remainder of the game, one of her cohorts decided that a hug was in order for this supporter to keep him warm.
It was at this point some kind gentlemen in yellow coats decided that the HOME supporter needed more hugs and more yellow coated gentlemen came to offer their warmth. This continued for a time ...
A very load siren screamed and the yellow-coated gentlemen helped all the AWAY team supporters to find the exit and forgot all about the HOME team chap who was busy singing.
WET but Happy ...

We must have been rubbing shoulders stui as I was also standing in M32
The yellow coats had told a number of people around me to "tone" it down! Must have been because of the old grannies sitting just inside the fence in the last row.
