Crowd for Sydney v Hawthorn @ ANZ Stadium

[Beaussie]

Looks like it could be a massive crowd going by what tickets are available on the Ticketek website.

Availability:

Platinum Available
Gold Available
Silver Single seats only
Bronze Alloc. Exhausted
Gold Non Alcohol Alloc. Exhausted
Silver Non Alcohol Alloc. Exhausted

They probably haven't made any seating on level 6 available as yet. So if we hit 40k, we'll be doing well.

More likely to be a Ticketek bungle - they probably haven't released the upper levels yet.

Rain is forecast! So possibly 19k if we're lucky

No that is the Sydney Football Stadium. Homebush is about 20-25 kms away.

That was the Sydney Football Stadium. ANZ Stadium is at Homebush Bay, which is about half an hours drive from the city.

I doubt it's anywhere near sold out; but it's a major blunder if they're not selling any cheap seats.
Someone looking to attend the game, logging on now, would find they're only able to attend if they buy expensive platinum or gold seats - and if that's more than they're prepared to pay, they'll be turned away from this game.
When we're in a recession and money is tight, this stunt of trying to syphon people into the more expensive seats will damage the image of the game. It is not good enough, and Ticketek should be held accountable for this.

Sorry pet. More like 10-15 kms away.

According to Google Earth, 15.67kms as the crow flies. By road I dare say its in the 20-25km range

That is amazing that you would say that.

A few friends and I were planning to go to the game - we looked on Ticketek and saw only singles in Silver and no cheaper seats available - we had already decided to pass on going live and watch it at a pub.

One of our friends called Ticketek, and they were told that the upper seats had not been released yet, and may be later in the week.

I thought it was worth joining up just to tell you how right you are on this one - epic fail from Ticketek/The Swans.
