First time on a stadium..

Got up today at 10am (slept last nite at 10pm) but seems like 12 hours of sleep still isn't enough for me...hmm.....well, got up, and had my breakfast, surfing the net alil bit, and was ready for me first time to go to a stadium for some sporting event woohoo!! Eventhough its a sport i had no idea whats its all about == Australian Football, with some similarities with rugby but not too same, oh and its pretty rough and fights were normal, i guess....anyway the teams that were playing was Carlton vs Richmond.

So get on the bus, meet a good Samaritan who gladly and kindly show me the way as he's goin to the game too, and thanks to the bus driver for giving me a free ride as i didnt have spare money and i only have 50 dollars and he doesn't had any money for change, well then he just tells me its ok and giv me a free ride. See? Things like this doesn't happen in Malaysia, be it just 10 sen, and u'll see them giving u 'the face', and more then 50sen, nope, no buisness. Were's the compassionate heart of Malaysians huh?
Anway, got to the stadium pretty early (1pm, and they tell us to be there at 1.30pm for the ticket)
On my way to there, note the scale of it?
















Crowded people
















Nando's was there
















And so was others

















A statue of a past player i think...looks cool though, and clean haha it was shining and shimmering, guess all we had was a statue with bird poo on it huh?
















Car giveaways?
















The Stadium, the MCG, Melbourne Cricket Ground (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MCG) Note that i'm goin to the seventh largest stadium in the world ya^^

































Inside the stadium
















Armando giving a cheeky look haha this is the Italian guy that i was talking bout, fantastic guy he was...
















And Xue Fei (雪飞) a new China friend that i got to know about
















The pitch, damn the grass looks nice.....
















You can see, its packed!
















Game starting
















Its getting more and more packed...== The cheer was like...nothing i've ever experienced..
















My new friends, Kuan from Korea on the left and Kenny or Ah Ming from Singapore ^^
















Game progressing..
















At the end Carlton wins 109 againts Richmond 89, the game was quite physical, but nonetheless action packed, for those who doesn't know Footy or Australian Football, you can go search around Wikipedia, just type in Footy.
















Inside the stadium....boy its realli is clean.....not like Malaysia..



















































Still packed haha
















Manage to snap a R33 GTR, not GTT, i guess as it wroted GTR at the back, but before this R33 there's a Corvette too, but unfortunately i was too late with my Z610 and just managed to snap the Skyline.

































The ticket itself, i think i'm the 22825th person that come to this game haha, total of the attendance? 50.874 people....50k man 50 k....
















The atmosphere? Phenomenal, The cheers? Fantastic
Guys you should all go and see a sport match in a stadium at least once in your life time haha seriously, its just not the same as watching them on television, and btw, u do get to see realli clear image of the player and what they are doing realli, trust me, i've been there haha
You ask me if its worth the money (although i didn't need to use any :=P) YES IT IS
Next stop, Soccer Match !!
