You know when you're soooo pissed off at the time and you want to let rip?

I got home and constructed a full on letter to AO but never sent it. Should've though.

I think it's documented elsewhere (I think in the SUnday Mail one week) that others involved behind the scenes in curtain raisers have had the same complaints.

You have composed a few of those complaint letters recently and never sent them ;)

It's a good way to vent, without actually venting.

Although, one of those emails DID get sent to Rob. I'm not sure whether he didn't answer it because you and Bryan were already onto it, or he just didn't give a carp.

it seems to me like it actually would be worth letting them know, because im sure the SMA wouldnt actually want people to be treated like crap, and its probably some lower level person with a power trip.

could be wrong, but it does seem pretty crappy. curtain raisers and halftime games etc are great ways for community interaction, so it would be disappointing if people arent getting treated properly.

Unfortunately its rife Bennymacca - The SAAFL U23's were shafted by the WAFL and the AFL as we were originally supposed to be a curtain raiser to the Crows game I believe - then we were told no but we could still play at Pattersons.

and then we got shafted from there to - to an oval half way to Broome*

* Disclaimer: It was about a 45min bus trip but felt like forever ;)

Hindsight is a wonderful thing - but I took it as they were still all finding their feet as it was Easter Sunday and I think we were only the 2nd or 3rd ever home game at AO so people were doing what they were trained to do and being pretty robotic about it.

Does anyone know if they check the type of ticket at Adelaide Oval? I've got a kids gold members pass to use tonight but will it show that when I scan it?

Not that I'm aware.

You can buy an upgrade on a kids pass from the ticket office if they catch you
