World Cup game advice/Experience

[Paul]

This thread is to tell ever about your experience at any of the games you have gone to and any advice to make others experience better.

I went to a game in Polokwane on Sunday (13th) and it was a blast even though the game itself was a bit dull, here is some advice though.


- take earplugs and headache tablets, the vuvuzela's are not as bad as everyone makes them out to be but 2 -3 hours of them can give you a headache, especially if you are consuming booze.

- Get to the stadium early, at least 4 hours before. We got there 1.5 hours before hand and just missed the kick off. I suggest trying to enter the stadium about 2 hours before kick off.

-Find out before you enter the stadium where you need to go for the return trip of the park and ride.

- If you are using a park and ride, park as close to the exit as possible not matter how full or empty it is, this makes getting out much easier.

- Prices, a coke or water will set you back R15, beer will set you back R30 and food is about R25, they had different variations of Hotdogs (e.g. chilli dog, cheese dog)

-Sunglasses are a must for day games unless you know you will be sitting in the shade


I am going to another game in Nelspruit this weeked and will update with any more advice
