FOOTBALL PARK WHAT A RIP OFF

I've just called bass/ticketmaster/ticketek (whatever!) and they told me that an adult ticket costs $27.65 incl entry, seat and booking fee. However the tickets aren't on sale until next Wednesday (20/6) apparently.

You must have gone through one of those travel agencies to get your ticket, Rupert? I think they usually take a slice of the action. I remember a few years ago having to pay some outrageous amount of money for a ticket to a game in either Sydney or Adelaide (can't remember which) because I went through Jetset Travel, or something like that. They were based in Footscray. I guess they figure that footy fans who are willing to travel interstate are easily ripped off.

Yeah. It's a friggin' disgrace. Most of the crowd will be Adelaide members so, for them, it's just part of their season ticket. But for everyone else it will cost an arm and a leg.

No ian that is wrong this is our game and its our identity why should we be concerned with what they do in england or america or what they charge at the gate it s no relevance to us.

Thats why our game is just about rooted cause the morons running it seem to think if it works ok overseas it will work here well that is frogshit.

Keep the game affordable and it will be around for ever.

PS dont believe the pollies and survey groups if any one is taking home 400 bucks a week they are doing well, now minus the gate charge from that as well as other day to day week to week living exppenses and you will soon discover that these sort of prices is not just wrong but bloody criminal.
