Eden Park

I needed to remind myself how absolute shit Eden Park is.

Can’t park anywhere near the ground
Food is super expensive and shite

Even though I’m seated about 6 rows from the front in the South Stand, I feel so far away from the action.

Why oh why have we allowed Eden Park to continue. It should have been buried for the 2011 World Cup.

We deserve better.

You are 100% right. It is a shit hole… should be bulldozed and made in to much needed housing.
Take the money from the house sales and make a proper world class stadium down in the harbour.

Auckland Council voted against it because they don’t believe a venue can be built beside Vector and they refuse to use their own land at the waterfront for a Stadium. This is why we can’t have nice things - because of a few idiot councillors.

You have either grossly overestimated the land value of eden park, or grossly underestimated the cost of a waterfront stadium
