Stadium of Canterbury

Fuck all parking around Suncorp Stadium and that packs out ~52K. It's about five minutes walk from the Paddo tavern and less than that from Caxton Street (bars and restaurants).

it's a short walk from a lot of places to pre-game. And with the free transport, getting there and back is a piece of piss.
Good stadium, except for the surface, and the beer choice

@mariner4life Is there any stadium that sells good beer?

We get the full range of monteiths in chch (I think there’s 7 or 8 options).
Not top quality but pretty good (the American pale ale is 5.7%).

I have been a season ticket holder for 15 years. Every year we used to get a survey about how things could be improved and I would complain about the shit beer (warm Tui in plastic bottles). Finally they listened to me!

I'll be sure to think of you, waiting in line for your tui with thousands of others, while I walk straight up and grab my garage project.

In my uni days I worked at the Edinburgh Castle on corner Newton/Symonds when it was the closest pub to EP (and apart from the Astor across the road the next was in K Rd)
It absolutely heaved before any game international or NPC and the taxi's were basically running every 30 seconds for the last 20 minutes before kick-off.
The rest of the time it was a dossers pub with a bit of a bad rep but come game day

I don't remember Garage Project being available at the NZ-Peru game last year.
I'd much rather find a decent pub before the game than pay for the overpriced "beer" at the venue. Galbraiths is such an example before an Eden Park game.
And their triple cooked chips!

Fuck off with your beer hijack. This a thread for us Cantabs to bitch and moan about slow progress and, hopefully, for the rest of you to look on with envy when we finally get our new shiny indoor rugby, oops I mean multipurpose (but not cricket), stadium.

Me too. Overpriced crap was not ok.

I drank porters pale ale, xpa, lager and original ale at the game last night. There’s a specialist bar down the end of the ground that sells a bigger range.
