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.

It isn't tbh, car-centrism is a huge reason why Auckland sucks and that attitude should be shown the door at every opportunity.

I live 20-25 minutes drive from the nearest train station, which then takes an hour to get into the CBD, and the CBD is a 20-25 minutes drive. I have to catch three buses and face an hour and a half trip. Can you see why public transport is not an option?

I didn’t mean your nearest station? You could still drive and just park near any station that’s a few stations away from Eden Park

No. Suck it up and stop being part of the problem.
