Farewell Parramatta Stadium - thanks for the memories..........

[phantom eel]

So was anyone in the first 1,000 people in the gates, and was there any special memento etc?

 

[Parramatta1947]

Yeah - there were programs but they werent that great. Missed opportunity

They also had small triangle flags......overall pretty dissapointing but not a shock either

 

[BoneyBlake17]

Didnt anyone see in that program they handed out in the top 30 moments paul kent 1 game got a mention. That had to be a stitch up surely

..yeah but in the catered areas they had cup cakes with the Eels logo on them! Yummmm.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Eels cup cakes? 30 f**king years and all that they could come up with is cup cakes?

Outrageous.

I liked that, thought it was a nice cheeky touch..

I see on twitter that the souvenir program had a dig at Paul Kent ? Is that right ? Pleease explain.

There were tons of programs but not many of the flags. Had to hunt around after the game to try and score one that people left behind

That's how I got my flag.

 

[Happy MEel]

Geez Ash, scamming a lift, not paying for petrol and scrounging around for a flag....you've done alright out of last night.

I didn't see them handing them out when I got there (just before kick off)...

You mean just after you climbed the fence to get in ?

I'm a ticketed member.. asshole.

 

[hybrideel]

i got there just after 6 and they weren't handing them out then either. But then a family rocks up 5 minutes before kickoff in the seats in front of us and had 3 of the bastards

I'm lead to believe that there may be a small momento given out to the first 1000 or so people in to the ground on Monday.

Sorry for the bum steer guys. One of my customers told me a while ago that they were supplying some commemorative engraved glasses or screen printed cups for the first 1000 people. Maybe it fell through due to costs.
Again, my apologies.

"The Max Effect"

 

[strider]

Maybe Spags and his extended 1000 family members rocked up early and got the glasses

Yup, too much red tape + cost put the idea to bed.

I just hope the new ground has terrible sound quality for nostalgic reasons. I want the chant to sound like it has been recorded onto a cheap cassette and played through a ghetto blaster near a microphone. Also when the ground announcer fires up about Denlo Volkswagon, I sure as shit do not want to understand what the f**kwit is saying.

 

[Suitman]

Hahahahaha. So true.
