Is the PA system at the 'G stuffed?
« on: May 12, 2011, 11:38:50 AM »
Greg Denham mentioned this this morning on KB's show. The PA system at the 'G hardly audible this year. If you're on level 1 you can't hear the siren nor hardly hear our theme song to sing it  :-\. Anyone else here noticed this where they sit at the 'G?

At least you can't hear the betting spouted between quarters.
They should just pipe it to where the TAB is so people who go to the footy to stand there and punt instead of watching the game can get the benefit of odds and the majority who couldn't give a toss can be spared the mundane crap.

They think the PA is stuffed because they couldn't hear the song over the Tiger fans singing it!  ;) :gotigers

Yep, I've noticed it as well. Could barely hear the siren a couple of times at both the Brisbane and Freo games (we sit Level 1 Olympic Stand). Struggled to hear the song as well, doesn't help when everyone around you is :clapping along out of time with the music :lol
Push up!

Prog rock?

There's a contradiction within itself.

Get with the Dubstep people.
