    Women to seek love at WACA

    To think I'm going to be at JBs instead...

    Single Perth women are being urged to follow cricket-mad bachelors down to the WACA in order to snag a bloke.

    This Thursday, January 15, the WACA has reserved 500 seats for singles to attend the KFC Twenty20 Big Bash game between the Warriors and Queensland Bulls. The highlight will be a speed dating extravaganza in the WACA stands.

    In an innovative twist, when a six is hit or wicket taken on the field, guys participating in the off-field speed dating will move along to the next seat in the stands and to their next date.

    If RWA still need to move some tickets for next Friday- here's an opporuntity to build on the commit now campaign. Just change the rules a bit, so you move along to the next date whenever there's a penalty, or you hear the words "hey ref, your mother swims out to troop ships".

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White

    Good idea I reckon but it isn't new, they did it at a previous match, I can't recall where.
    I remember Heals commentating from the stand though on TV.

    I remember the did it at a NSW Twenty20 match once before- they must have done it again some other time if Heals was on though.
    Personally I find it just adds to the 'gimmick' factor of T20- as if it wasn't laid on with a trowel already.

    I like the way if you look at the Ticketmaster site - tickets are available for guys between 20-60 and women between 18-50. Not at all sexist!

    That sounds a bit wrong doens't it?

    You'd think since the article implies a surfeit of dudes at the cricket, the restrictions should be the other way around.

    Though I guess that's this dudes business- he must know the demographics

    Black is the new black, Gerry. Pink is the old black. As of last week. Get with the programme.
