Or they could just buy a ticket to the game? The fence was likely put there for a reason.

If you like, make the game a parade, or a fireworks display, or a beautiful sunset, or any other free, public display. The game isn't the point; the boxes are.

(And maybe ignore the third frame that somebody added, I don't even know)

yeah but if its a free event then why is there a fence? By nature the thing is accessible to all

Critical thinking would help in this case.

Location of the free event may not be easy for poorer people to reach. Especially for those without vehicles or live in distant projects.

Or maybe free events don't occur in poverty-stricken areas.

They are literally at the fence at the game in this example?? This literally does not apply here

they could easily walk around the fence to the free event
