There are 30 of us Taswegians attending the game as a group this Friday night. The Club has provided us with 30 reserved seats, and most of us are members so we'll use our membership cards for general admission. I've never had/used reserved seat tickets before, can anyone advise what happens? Do you use your card at the main gates and then go to the the reserved area/level wherever and then use the reserved seating ticket when you get to the reserved area?

There are a few non-members that will need to purchase general admission at the ground, should they just go to one of the ticket windows 1st, purchase their ticket and go thru and then meet us inside prior to entering the reserved seat area?

Any advice much appreciated.
 
Hi Tassie Dave,

Your membership cards should get you into the ground then you just go to your section and show the reserved seating ticket to the attendant.

What section are you in?

Cheers
 
If you have a reserved seat (ticket) then that will get you into the ground, and to your seat, without the use of your mebership ticket.
 
It depends how the seats have been reserved. If there are bar codes on the tickets you use them to get into the ground and the reserved area.

If they don't have barcodes they are only for the seats and you either need a membership card or to purchace tickets for admittance to the ground.

Lost it or did you rip it up after rnd 1? ;D
No it is lost, Iam sure if I look hard for it I will find it. I usually think of my membership as a donation as every time I get to Melbourne it is more of a case I manage to pick a Ruichmond away game for some reason. Ayway wil lbe there for St Kilda game and the Essendon game although I think that is also an away game.

If you use the tickets to get in make sure you pop out at half time. Grab a pass out but use your membership to get back in. Bigger the official crowd the better negotiation tool for scheduling requests and future ground negotiations.

the club gave you reserved seats? are they membership cards or tickets with bar codes?

the non-members will have no problems getting tickets this week, even with 60,000 expected. but if they wanna sit on a lower level i suggest you get there early
