Buying a Rugby World Cup ticket? Yeah right

[turtleman]

I'm basing my disgust on the average price their quoting for a similar quality game that we are used to watching for approx $90, even if you double that for a world cupits no where near what they are going to charge




Mate, season ticket holders aren't going to get a look in. They are going to have to join the que (if they can afford to) like all the rest..........I say all but I dont think many will be there!!!!

Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning the proposed prices, just pointing out that not ALL RWC games (or seats) will be ~$1400.

I Absolutely sympathise with ya regarding extortionate prices and the season ticket holers - Rugby used to be great to go and watch. But it's been unaffordable for the average Joe to take the kids along to a s12/s14/NPC game for years..... unless you buy a 'family pass' type thing, but then you end up with the shittiest seats in the house and can't see about 90% of the game.

But it's not all about the ticket prices either.... I gave up on NPC/S14 games about 2 years ago, when FTA TV stopped. Sky TV and corporatisation of our national game has pretty much killed it off for a lot of people....

Agree on the ticket prices making it impossible for the average bloke with family,makes a mockery of there advertising,off topic somewhat but picked these up as a set made in 87,has some paperwork on the back with sigs,worth hanging on to?
