worth the price every year when you sip that first FULL STRENGTH beer




how good does it feel to taste real beer and look to the yobbos on the hill having to empty the bank account just to get smashed

worth every cent in my book

I spend time in the members and the outer every Adelaide Oval game and the price of beer is always the same.
Atmosphere is always crap in the members though, I only go there for a quick full strength or 2, a couple of quick snaps and Im back in the outer where the atmosphere is.

I wasn't talking about cricket, I was talking about footy.
I wouldln't go to that hole to watch cricket if I was paid.
Its bad enough going there to watch a decent sport.

i think you will will find we are all talking about the cricket where you get a choice of full strength beers against the Gold in the outer - the chappel bar (magic cave) is the place to be during the tests :drinkers:

Agreed, and its no different in the footy season, hence why I usually pop into the members for a couple of full strength brews before heading back to the outer.

It won't be an issue on Sunday though, we're starting about 10am in the car park. :lol:

We appear to get a lot of value out of our SACA memberships however as we can get into the footy finals or get first dibs on other sports being played there. Footy Park members don't get that.

It was worth being in the members Sunday - got a good view of Punky carrying the banner... :lol:

And me trying to carry the bastard back out!

Must admit I was in the members for most of the first quarter and there was no atmosphere there. :?

Yes Wedgie you're dead right. If it wasn't for the scoreboard bar being closed, my mob would be over on the hill and me with them.
