what it is, yo?
what's up?…read moreevery stadium needs a rugby thug
every cup team needs a little love
if they're down, imma pick them up, up, up!
once every 4 years, rugby world cup fever hits.
2019, was in tokyo.
2023, despite all odds of not making this whirlwind trip, marseille and i reacquainted!
finding the way to this stadium was a challenge!
although we had hospitality tickets and free parking right at the stadium, the short journey from hotel to stadium took forever!
poor signage led us round and round but never really getting there.
finally, sought guidance from a female police officer and she gave just enough clarity on how to reach our destination.
right under the stadium we ended.
from there onwards, the access to the hospitality suites was smooth sailing.
finger food and alcohol flowed freely!
entertainment in the form of ex rugby internationals gracing and mingling at pre game sessions.
direct access to clean toilets and all but just a step out into the stadium proper!
comfy and central seats away from the setting sun too!
the rows of seats were also well spaced for easy ingress and egress.
acoustics echoed fan anthems with dolby surround effect for an atmosphere worthy of the rugby world cup games played here.
half time, post game food and drinks made it easy not wanting to leave any earlier.
also perfect for the crowd to dissipate for an easy exit thereafter.
only the cup final game in paris remain.
au revoir, marseille!
till 2027, aussie, aussie, aussie!
