So let's have some fun with this one, from the weird and wacky to pure joy. Tell us about a live sporting experience you have had that is memorable for all the right or wrong reasons. Could be anything from the game itself, Somebody in the crowd an event in the stands. Go crazy. Doesn't have to be about a result can be anything. I will kick it off just to get the ball rolling.
I remember a few seasons ago at aami park was a wet miserable day Heart V WSW I think the grand prix was on same time so was a very low crowd. teams were out having shots until I think it was Ono kicked it over the bar it flew and it made its way into the crowd. Out of the aisle came a chap with 4 beers in hand Onos ball who went like a rocket hit him square in the face beer and all went everywhere. To his credit he got up and gave the thumbs up - Minus 4 beers of course. But you knew the moment it missed the bar and flew over the top at that speed someone was going to get hit. Just had to be the guy with 4 beers. How he got back up ill never know the sound was insane how hard it hit him.
Also at the afl being a die hard bomber fan I would go to most matches. I sat next to our cheersquad which is where my reserve seat was. Prior to the game we took our seats food in hand and before we could eat a smell came across us like no other it was putrid. What was causing this smell we thought. Then to our right we saw it a grown man had removed his pants and was cleaning with a napkin the poo that he had kindly left in it. Didn't take long for security to move him off to a much better location.
lastly - went to a one day match at the G Australia V England must of been around 2007 I think it was. Was a bumper crowd. The bloke in front of us all afternoon was confident he would run on the ground, Until his mates realized the only way he will do it is to get him well sauced. So as the night session came the drinks were in full force his time to shine came. Down the aisle he went trying to look as less suspicious as possible. The crowd around us grow with excitement will he make it. Up the fence he jumped on the ground he landed he launched as quick as he could only to get caught up in the exitemtn tripped on the boundary ropes and then get pummelled by the security. Must of been the best $5000 spend ever. Cricket crowds for you.

Worked at heaps of Stadiums & lots of celeb run ins. Saw someone hop in an elevator with John Howard and say "don't I know you from somewhere". Been in an elevator with Bec & Leyton Hewitt, Spud Carroll, Wayne Pearce & Lara Bingle - now when Bec Hewitt and Lara Bingle are standing right next to each other, it's not Lara Bingle that gets your attention. Busted heaps of people having sex in various places around stadiums, fired staff for doing the same, swept plenty of powder into the bin from suites, watched a U2 sound check as the only person in an 80,000 stadium, used to have my morning coffee as the only person among 50,000 empty seats while the sun rose over the Eastern stands, watched a couple of Socceroos training sessions on my own and if people play the "who would you turn gay for" game I can't answer David Beckham anymore now that I've been within three feet of him, it's just too weird.
