I once saw a bloke thrown into a paddy wagon for singing the national anthem, yes he had had a few, but he was more enjoying than than the dead boring game. Coppers told him to shut it and when he didn't he spent the rest of the game detained, several people questioned the police tactics, me included, and was told if you want to join him....
I feel sorry for the mums and dads who spent half a months salary taking the young kids to the game only for it to be washed out, or over in no time.
next time you go get beers at the cricket, when the bored uni student asks how many you'd like to pay for, just nod that your with the person next to you in the queue. When you get to the far end of the line where another bored uni student is poring and handing out beers, and asks wether its four beers, you say thanks and take them. A mate and I made numerous friends at the "super test' several years ago by suppling beer to many thirsty cricket fans. Did I feel guilty about getting heaps of beers for free at the SCG, nah, thats just a day out at the cricket.
