What the........?
Privately run carparks taking advantage of marquee events to rip off customers?
I cannot believe that.
Would never have happened in the history of the free world.
I say - "Fake news"
 
Imagine forking out money for a ticket to go watch Hinkley's Heroes underperform then find out that parking has sky rocketed.

hurr durr just park further away

Whilst that may seem like an idea, some people for whatever reason (usually because they're free to do so), bring young children and babies to the games. So you'd imagine that prams, backpacks etc would be a burden.

Personally I think the solution should be to do as many donuts as possible on their precious car park then shift a massive breakfast at the Wilson HQ doorstep (in Minecraft.)
 
I can't understand driving to be honest.

If you live on the Obahn line, catching the buses are so much easier, cheaper and significantly faster.

I can understand if you're on a train line because they're a bit of a shambles and you can lose a huge chunk of time if you don't get to the station at the right time, but even then, it seems a far easier experience to get in whenever you want.

The price rise doesn't make much sense unless they've noticed a huge increase in traffic and are trying to push more people to public transport.

Buses are massive disease incubators in the middle of winter

I park at the back of Light Square where's there's plenty of free parking

Wander down to Pondok Daun on Currie St for some cheap Indonesian and then stroll to the oval

Simples
Maybe, but generally, for those catching the Obahn, they'll nearly be home by the time you get back to your car.

My father parks in Topham mall, and I was often home or nearly there, after catching the bus to the plaza and then jumping in my car to home. By the time he has gotten out of the car park.

The trains though are a different issue. I've moved into the west, a couple houses back from the Esplanade and catching a train is ok, if I get to the station at the right time, but if you miss a train and have to wait 20mins it's crap. Getting in there though is far easier.
