A group booking to a Fremantle game has given some of our biggest fans a birthday to remember.
Passionate Freo Dockers supporter, Allan Stone, told us he turned “more than forty” last week and thought attending the clash against North Melbourne at Optus stadium was a great way to celebrate.
“I actually wanted more tickets to the game and Ticketmaster wouldn't let me do it so I thought I would try making a group booking through the Fremantle website,” Allan said.
“It’s the second game I’ve been to this year, and I think the new stadium is great.”
“It’s always good to go to the footy with a group of friends, especially when it’s your birthday. ”
Johnny and Jenny Docker even paid our birthday guests a visit at quarter time to present them with a special birthday card.
First-time Optus stadium visitor, Kaine Rogers celebrated her 60th birthday alongside her closest family members.
“I’m turning 60 this week, and my son’s thought it would be a fun idea to organise a group booking to today’s game,” Kaine said.
“My two boys are members. One of my other sons was coming down from Karratha and it just happened to coincide with today’s game.”
“The experience has been fabulous.”
“It’s my first time visiting Optus Stadium and I would absolutely make a group booking again.”
Former Freo player Scott Chisholm aka ‘Prince of Pockets’ also celebrated his big day at the match with a few of his closest friends.
“It’s been an awesome experience, this is the best atmosphere we can get,” Scott said.
“Bringing Freo supporters and a few friends who are North Melbourne fans along, we’re both interacting with each other.
“It’s like a tug of war.
“I’d recommend bringing your friends along to a game and enjoying the sport.
“It’s the best thing you can do for your birthday.”
