The best things about being at an eels match at Parramatta Stadium are

Posted by Bean on March 4, 2010 at 8:01pm

That smell of hot food and beer at Parramatta Stadium...

 

That feeling of being 'home' surrounded by your fellow eels die hards...

 

Seeing the team line up on the big screen and their names being called out just before kick off gets everyone excited...

 

The famous Parra chant...sends shivers down the spine every time...

 

Giving it to the Ref and the touchies until they blow that well overdue penalty lol....taking out the frustration of your long week at work on the officials...

 

It's where you can just let go and be free...

 

Embracing the complete stranger next to you as your team scores that vital try...

 

Listening to the bunch of funny blokes behind you cracking jokes about the opposition, the officials or even your own team..

 

Seeing fathers and their young sons...brings back some great memories for myself for when my late dad would take me, the best days of my life

 

Anyone else care to add?

    The roar as parra run on, especially in front of a packed house, with everyone screaming, whistling and waving their flags!! God I miss that!! The only shitty thing about living on the gold coast is not having my season ticket!!

    The fui roar from the crowd is good.

    Also when they run out to Parra to win song. That is Jon English singing right?

    The drunk loud dude parra fan walking back to parra cbd singing 'what a win what a win what a win.. what a win wat a win wat a win '

    And obviously the fans all bending there necks and getting up looking under the sponsership signs on the northern hill trying to c the replay of a bullshit call by the ref.

    last year at one game we played the Pussycat Dolls song after we beat the Warriors.......that was disgraceful....!!

    hope it doesn't EVER happen again.

    The song before and after a win always gets the heart pumping!!

    Can't beat John English version....hahaha
