QB game - ticketing

[JTR 2,840]

I see the game is listed as a "B game" under this new pricing structure thing.

For adult members it has the following prices:

CAT 1 - $39.00

CAT 2 - $34.00

CAT 3 - $24.00

CAT 4 - $14.00

CAT 5 - $9.00

GA - $8.50

I have a GA membership.

Does this mean I wont be able to walk into the ground with my card as usual, but will instead have to go to the ticket window and pay $8.50 ?

Wait, is it our home game? Do our normal GA memberships entitle us entry?

[BarnDee 287]

is parking as normal ?

[Oneday 248]

I dont think you will be able to walk up and use your membership cards as you will have to pay the difference between the regular GA price and the new structure.

I think they work it out using the co efficient of the number of tools in the average sidchrome socket set readily available at all good tool outlet stores multiplied by the price of tea in china divided by the roughness factor of 15 year old common HDPE pipe.

Hmmm, I notice here...

... that the Richmind game was also a "B game" and for that I just walked straight in with my card.

So, I dunno now...

Anyone with a GA membership (without Reserved Seats) can scan in as usual and go to Level 4. There is no additional charge to pay. Go Dees

[JTR 2,840]

Ok thanks for that. I wasn't aware there was a GA with reserved seats so guess that explains my confusion with the $8.50.

Cheers

There are numerous membership options with Reserved Seats but suggest you ring Membership on 1300 336 667 and they will gladly clear up any confusion.

so if you have ga with reserved seats don't you still just scan in as usual?

[old dee 23,486]

Just checked the " Match Day Info" part of the MFC site.

Makes no mention of paying extra for any member and lists the Normal seating members areas for a home game at the G.

So from that I assume situation normal for MFC members.

I hope so DC, the MFC website gameday info indicates if you have a membership you just walk in. If I find I have to queue up to get some extra ticket I will give someone a spray

[Demons 32 235]

Nothing more irritating than paying extra so good to hear that it should be fine for GA members to scan in.

I am paying an extra 10 bucks to reserve a seat in the MCC which annoys me, but it's worth it to bring the guests I am bringing, get those crowd numbers up!

[Longsufferingnomore 1,609]

yes

How many blue rinsers are you bringing along DC? It will certainly swell the .... er .. club coffers. You know what I mean!!!

[old dee 23,486]

As long as they pay who cares.

[Bitter but optimistic 22,057]

Correct OD!! Further Daise probably has them buying him lunch, drinks etc just to be first on the list.

Ring the Club 1300 DEMONS or 1300 336 667 but whatever you do get there early and check that the MCC Park is open given that we have had some rain this week. If you ring the MCC that morning there is usually a message about the car parking.

[Adam The God 29,331]

My sister and I keep parking across the river and walking. It's a 10-15 minute walk, but it's free and a lovely walk through Gosch's Paddock.

Well I'm actually giving up quality time with the tatting group to go to the football.

I park at the RACV club and walk to the "G" from there - it's a health thing. However, I usually need to break this laborious trek at either Y&J's or Fed Square. Off course I am quite parched by the time I finally arrive and seek solace in the "Betty Cuthbert" bar.

Sounds like a mighty sensible plan, Bitter. No point in suffering from dehydration and missing the game.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Nothing to worry about. It's just like any other game, you can sit in the seats listed when you scan in

[JV7 2,348]

I'm confused, i am a 11 game member.. Can I just walk in like every other week ?
