    G'day y'all!

    I'm an Aussie expat with at least another 2 years being stationed in Houston, Texas but am currently working on a project back here in Perth. I first found out about the Force when I wandered down to Paddy Maguires from the company's apartment here in Subi a couple of weeks ago before the last home game as it was packed with supporters.

    I am hoping to go to this Saturday night's game but I am a bit of a snob when it comes to seats at sporting events so am trying to find a seat in the Gold level but somehow I don't like my chances with all you fanatical fans out there so I may just have to bite the bullet and go for the Silver level.

    I'd be going on my own so is anyone here amongst those that goto Paddy Maguires beforehand or to another drinking establishment?

    Normally the folks go to J B O'Reilly's.

    Impressive to see a supporter from Houston getting on the Force juggernaut.

    To be honest a lot of the Silver seats are better than the Gold because of the layout of the ground. Anyway JB's is the place to start out but turn up early as it gets busy.

    Thanks all! Just for clarification I am an Aussie but just helping my company establish it's USA office over in Houston but am here in Perth until the end of March for a local project.

    I was stressing this morning as Ticketmaster was telling me there were no tickets at all available but I just tried again and managed to get one, Silver level at Section 121, Row N, Seat 1. Now I have to get some Force supporter's gear and then I'll see y'all at JB O'Reillys.

    I'm all kitted out now with a jersey and cap, spent a wee bit more than I was planning but hey I get paid in US dollars at the moment so it's all good!

    So what time is early at JB O'reilly's? Like 12:00ish or so? I'll be the tall skinny guy wearing a player's jersey and the grey travel cap.
