RWC Dilema Should I stay or Should i go....

[terrymendez]

I have paid for accomadation and am due to get on the ferry at 17.00 this evening to head to Paris.

I have no ticket and dont want to pay over about £200 quid.

Do I bail out now and cut my losses (apx £100), as two other mates have done and watch it locally...

or

go for it in the hope that I will stumble accross a French or Kiwi person who wants to sell me a ticket for face value?


I have about 2 hrs to make up my mind.....

Apologies if you really dont give a fck.

go anyway the atmosphere around Paris will be WICKERD

 

[bhafc4eva]

You wont get a ticket for face value!

FACT

I would still go and watch it in a french boozer with all the other english doing the same thing!

 

[culvers]

reckon it would be worth going for the experience, but wouldn't expect to get a ticket for £200.
Go to Paris, soak up the atmosphere and watch the game at one of those big screens.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Go, You maybe lucky and get a ticket 0 however the atmosphere would be amazing

 

[wehatepalace]

Watch it on one of the big screens by the Eiffel Tower

You gotta go. You never know. It could be a fantastic night - and you could be part of it. Mind you - it does depend on how keen you are on rugby though.

I'd go for the atmosphere and sense of occasion and not even worry about a ticket. If one comes your way, go for it, but the chance is remote.

Not sure I'd go by myself though (not sure if that is what is happening here or not).

 

[terrymendez]

mmmm, i have been to all of the games so far and would not want to watch it anywhere but the ground....

I was also at the last World cup final in Sydney, i would be gutted if i wasn't in the ground.

 

[wehatepalace]

And Just think what a laugh you will have on the Ferry over, on the Trains to Paris a good old sing song and your body weight in beer
Although the journey home if we lose will be a bit shit

 

[terrymendez]

No, I am the driver - everyone else bar one who was 3rd reserve has bailed out....so its not even as if I would be travelling with BEST mates....get back sunday at 9pm so its a whole weekend...

You stand to work hard and waste a lot of time and effort trying to get a ticket now.

But I'd go, try a little bit, then accept that you'll be watching a televised broadcast somewhere exotic - and enjoy the heck out of that.

You might still enjoy the party afterwards (and maybe only if you can also shrug it off if England lose)

The trip back could also be brilliant fun, or just head for a nice area of Paris and stay for the sights.

Don't go, it's not a real 'world' cup, half the world doesn't even know what rugby is.
