    This is correct. The percentage of walk-ups at the SCG and Giants Stadium of the total crowd is a lower than at the venues in the southern
    states. The general thinking is this is because there is less "casual" interest in the game in Sydney than in the southern states.
    Prices for walk-up tickets are slightly higher at the two Sydney venues than elsewhere, but that is not regarded as the major issue
    deterring walk-ups.
